Curated by
Leilani Lynch
Lean-to is an exhibition by Oolite’s 2022 artists-in-residence whose manifold practices probe and reimagine systems of support, preservation and care. Inspired by the architectural form of a lean-to, a temporary, often improvised shelter, exhibiting artists offer opportunities for respite and space for reflection on supportive structures ranging from the spiritual, communal, and ancestral to the environmental and economical. Using varying media and personal entry points, many works examine how these structures manifest across time and space. While others embody the directionality of the exhibition title, Lean-to, operating within the realm of speculation, proposing how we might contend with the yet-to-come.
