Castlefield Gallery is pleased to present a two-person exhibition with Leo Fitzmaurice and Kim Rugg consisting of both new and existing work. Through the dissecting and re-arranging of mass produced information based material, such as newspapers, brochures, comics and packaging, the artists fragment our visual and cognitive understanding of images and text, and force us to reconsider the familiar from a completely new perspective.

Surface Gallery, Nottingham
The exhibition, Mine the Mountain, draws upon the artist’s personal experience at sites of historic trauma, such as Auschwitz-Birkenau, Belzec, Majdane; Ypres and Verdun, to engage in themes of the past, the present, family history, memory and the anonymous individual in history. This sits alongside an exploration of the notion of the ‘dark tourist’ (the tourist who visits sites of trauma) and the idea of tourism of the self.
