Curated by Liz Brady (Broken Grey Wires), this exhibition created a space for audiences to catch their breath and explore the mental health crisis through an ambitious and challenging project.

Through our personal understanding of mental ill health, Broken Grey Wires creates spaces for people to experience madness in a radical and ambitious, yet safe environment.

With an exhibition title borrowed from Alaska Thunderfucks infamous and hilarious advert on Rupauls Drag Race Allstars season 2 for Fashion tape. This show takes these words 'Stunning, Fierce & Yellow' as its starting point, building an exhibition layered with materials, culture (low/high) and in some cases just through the artists use of the colour yellow.

Spatial Narratives, at The Auxiliary Project Space, Middlesbrough, is the first solo exhibition by artist Loucey Bain, and it coincides with The Auxiliary’s fourth anniversary as an organisation. Spatial Narratives was a result of Bain’s year-long embodied research into the visual narratives and social relations of The Auxiliary building, drawing on her roles as artist, studio holder and gallery assistant.

Stroke/Slow Burn presented by Tony Charles and Saturaion Point.

Comprised of two main elements; firstly, a selection of his ‘Unpaintings’. Work which he has become known for consisting of imposing metallic pieces that are both paintings and presentations of an industrial process. The second is Stroke, a sculptural steel installation which challenges the preconception of steel being strong and robust and is made from borrowed steel from a steel stockist, potentially leading to an unintended purchase of his art.

A Study of Place, ‘Field Study’ was a group show bringing together 6 artists based in Britain and Ireland. Each artists explores and sets out to uncover how place and people evolve over time. This exhibition cannot be discounted as a site specific investigation; set in The Auxiliary gallery and warehouse which sits in the border between central Middlesbrough and the area where the town was ‘born’.
