Six students will show a diverse array of work, all united by one single important fact: they have stories to tell. Stories about the counter-culture in the nineteen seventies, stories about the muddled histories of a beloved secondhand car, a meditation on the last walk of Virginia Woolf, stories about time, tides and archaeology along the Thames Estuary, infinite refigurings of the passage of light across materials and emulsions, and then finally the strange stories that are woven through the imaginary archive of an obsessive meteor-hunter. But at the heart of each of these very different creative practices is the fundamental enigma of that moment when the photograph breaks into the world, fragments it and reveals its complexity; offering us up not words to make sentences with but objects to imagine with – ‘mythopoesis’.
