The Breakery, No. 31 Gallery, Duns

July 19, 2025 – August 16, 2025

The exhibition presents work by Lily Ashrowan, John Ayscough and Kevin Harman. The artists have in common a freedom of interdisciplinary experimentation; moving seamlessly between formats and forms. Each artist seeking to challenge, to critique, social constructs and preconceptions.

Lily presented a series of photographic works posterpainted onto board; a screenprinted mirror with text; and a postcard rack containing over 200 individualy sized 35mm photographs taken by the artist. Around the local town of Duns, Lily posterpainted photographic images on electrical boxes, lampposts, boarded up windows and bins.

Two performances were put on during the opening, the first was participatory event called Rotton Tomatoes in which John Ayscough invited members of the public to throw tomatoes at a canvas. The results then hung in the gallery. The second was a performance reading called LIBIDO by Lily Ashrowan. A transcript of Lily's performance can be downloaded here.
