HIDE by Conor Ackhurst Booklet
HIDE, an exhibition by Conor Ackhurst
Friday, July 18, 2025 - Saturday, July 26, 2025 - Stroud Valleys Artspace - 4 John Street, Stroud, United Kingdom (map)
Limited edition artist booklet published on the occasion of the exhibition in association with Regentag.
“A tree is a singular object. A forest is an abstraction, we experience it as an environment, an atmosphere, a system. A forest is a concept that emerges from multiplicity. It exists not just as a sum of its parts, but as something more—a space shaped by density, depth, concealment, and movement. HIDE is a continuation of Conor Ackhurst’s ongoing investigation into simulation, constructed environments, and the uneasy friction between digital and physical realities. In this work, camouflage is not simply a tool of concealment but a political and aesthetic force—one that dissolves, distorts, and reconfigures our relationship to nature, perception and power.”
