Meet The Artist: Thomas Dowdeswell at Cass Art Islington

Bristol artist Thomas Dowdeswell will be at Cass Art Islington on Saturday 11 May to discuss his latest exhibition 'The Age of People Who Live With Their Heads in Boxes'.

Inspired by worldwide political events, the exhibition focuses on the transformation of traditional democratic values and the divisions between cultures, classes, races and sexes. Thomas pulls back the curtain on current issues and hopes it will trigger a debate on populism, narcissism, freedom of speech and the uncertainties of the future.

This is a great opportunity to meet and talk with Thomas Dowdeswell about his work and also check out his first London solo show before it closes on the 14th May!
