Reality Check

Reality Check brings together sixteen of British art's rising stars, in an exhibition which presents the very latest developments in UKúbased photography and video installation. Each participating artist shares a belief in the camera's capacity to transform real experience - whether through re-enactment and visual replay, or through close observation and obsessive documentation - into the realm of the poetic. Reality Check is an exhibition inspired by real things in the real world - by events, people, relationships, places, things - while moving between differing levels of truth and imagination, perception and pretence.
