Reworking family portraits with textile interventions, We Hold Back The Night probes the ideologies represented by our domestic documentation of times gone by in the Upper Gallery.

In the Darkside and Lower Galleries, The Orator Vs. the Warrior induces a contemporary technological battle for supremacy.
