It's a nice small local museum with a recently refurbished temporary exhibition gallery on the ground floor. The location is the town's Market Place and one of the few areas that hasn't been totally usurped by the motor car and shopping mall culture that predominates the vicinity. If this is like any of the other places I have exhibited, once the word gets round, people will be packing into the gallery to see the holograms.
It is over six months since the last exhibition and unpacking the holograms for display was like meeting up with old friends. In the case of self-portraits by Margaret Benyon, Patrick Boyd and Martin Richardson, that is literally the case and, since Margaret now lives in Australia, I am more likely to see her hologram than I am her self. Hanging the exhibits in a different order makes it a fresh experience too and one sees the work in a new light (no pun intended - though the spotlights in the museum were brand new, as it happens).
Though there were some good sightlines in this space I found it hard to photograph with stills so have posted a video of the show on YouTube. It runs for about five minutes but is still pretty much a run through the gallery. If you have the time , I hope you consider it worth a look:
