Bringing together art from across Tate’s Collection, this exhibition highlights the connection between environmental and social justice, inviting us to reimagine our relationships with the natural world and each other.
Artists Outi Pieski, Abbas Akhavan, Bruce Conner, Zheng Bo, Gauri Gill & Rajesh Vangad, Edgar Calel and Carolina Caycedo feature, as well as a new commission by Abbas Zahedi. Through their work, these artists honor Indigenous knowledge, nurture queer multispecies relations and document issues such as displacement and destruction of land and waterways.
Set in a former oil and coal power station, Gathering Ground offers a shared space to reflect on our role in creating a more equal world. At a critical moment in our history, this powerful exhibition asks: how can we be good Ancestors for future generations?
Gathering Ground is supported by Mala Gaonkar and Tate Patrons. With additional support from PPL and Tate Members, in addition to support from Little Greene for their supply of paint and Minirig for the supply of audio equipment.
