GOTT MATE MUTT
“Tiger
got to hunt, bird got to fly;
Man
got to sit and wonder 'why, why, why?'
Tiger
got to sleep, bird got to land;
Man
got to tell himself he understand.”
- Kurt
Vonnegut
'Gott Mate Mutt' is
an exhibition that explores human nature perceived by the artists in reaction
to both Kurt Vonnegut's novel Cat’s Cradle and to current
global events. Using Cats’ Cradle as an inspiration the
artists including Mary Roberts-Holmes, Jack Friswell, Oliver McConnie, Sam
Fleming, Max Naylor and Julian Bell exhibit work focusing on humans’ absurd
relationship with destruction.
