Seeing Stars<\/a> explores our long fascination with outer space and the technologies we create to measure, observe, and understand our place in the Universe. This exhibition shines a light on contemporary artists who use and challenge the newest technologies for space imaging in their practice. The artworks in this exhibition bring the human sense of wonder back into sharp focus \u2013 blurring the line between fact and fiction. Join exhibition guest curator Hondartza Fraga and artists Stella Baraklianou, Mishka Henner and Paul Magee to discuss their work and the themes of Seeing Stars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hondartza Fraga is a Spanish artist based in Leeds. Working in drawing, photography, animation, and video she explores an evolving fascination with places and objects that lie just out of reach, such as outer space.

Her drawing work is featured in Vitamin D3: Today\u2019s Best in Contemporary Drawing by Phaidon Publishing (2021).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
