Blobby Realms

This exhibition is a debut group show by Young People aged 14 – 17 participating in HOME’s brand-new Young Artists Studio programme.
This multi-artwork showcase offers you a snapshot of this collectives’ miscellaneous creative exploration over the course of a year, incubated at HOME.
The Young Artists present their distinct artistic styles and sometimes conflicting approaches to artmaking in harmonious tension. The exhibition builds upon the Young Artists’ ongoing lines of enquiry and learning and encases a forming collective identity. Informed by their Manifesto and embodying the energy of their studio working style, Blobby Realms rejects the homogenous and embraces deviation, contemplation and banter.
Through film, crochet, sculpture, photography, animation, painting, printmaking, drawing and projection the Young Artists give you the opportunity to look at the world through the eyes of young people.
This first cohort of young people participating in HOME’s brand-new programme represent: Bolton, Urmston, Littleborough, Chorlton, Heywood, Trafford, Sale, Timperley, Rochdale, Prestwich, Macclesfield, Radcliffe, Oldham, Central Manchester, and Stockport.
