Collyer Bristow Gallery presents an exhibition of work that considers the crossovers between fine art practice and architectural/urban concerns, exemplifying the thought processes of both practices whilst recognising the blurring of these boundaries, both perceived and actual. Works that consider the presence of the human, inhabiting imagined and real space are to be shown alongside pieces where form plays a conceptual role: where the human is absent.

This fascinating interplay places art and architecture at the centre of the question of human relevance. Through physical and conceptual construction, reconstruction and deconstruction these practitioners interweave material and matter.

Cantilever is part of the London Festival of Architecture 2008 (LFA 2008).

The London Festival of Architecture is a biennial celebration and exploration of London’s architecture and built environment.
