30th January, 2025 – ArtHouse Jersey at Capital House
We headed to Capital House for the opening of ‘Nowhere Less Now’, an immersive exhibition that saw the gallery transformed into the upturned hull of a ship. Guests were invited to enter a haunting exploration of time and memory, with intriguing artwork that evaluated how history is both created and perceived.
It was the first major exhibition to take place at Capital House this year, brought to the island by UK-based artists Lindsay Seers and Keith Sargent. Previous episodes of the exhibition have featured at London’s Hayward Gallery at the Southbank Centre, Whitechapel Gallery and other major galleries and museums in Sharjah, Tasmania, Swansea and Margate. The work premiered at the Kilburn Tin Tabernacle in 2012, as a special site-specific installation by Artangel, one of the UK’s most pioneering contemporary art organisations.
Due to the nature of the exhibition, people were welcomed into Capital House in small groups, whilst the remaining guests milled around in the Gentleman’s Club next door. It was a great time to catch up over a glass of wine, and meet new people with a shared interest.
