The group exhibition 10 for 10 – My Top Ten Favourite Things at the Visual Voice Art Gallery gathers ten artists, each taking a stab at compiling their very own, personal Top Ten list on a subject of their choice. The resulting artworks are lyrical, unique, quirky, charming, and humourous. For example, Emily Pelstring presents a series of quietly haunting drawings titled “My Top Ten Favourite Child Actresses with My Top Ten Favourite Wild Animals”, Sigrún Jenny Bardadottir‘s work “Under Water, Top Ten Sinking Homes” echoes the current financial crisis, and Mike Patten‘s “My Top Ten Favourite Cereals” are a series of abstract panels created with colourful breakfast cereals.
For those inspired by the artists’ take on the Top Ten, they can add their own voice to the exhibition: visitors have a chance to create their own Top Ten lists on a wall-sized pin board in the gallery.
