Artery is a collaborative project initiated Matt Hawthorn with the artists group Graft. The project aims to performatively map the course of the River Trent from Source to Sea, by inviting artists to use their practice to excavate hidden identities and generate new mythologies which will be recorded onto an interactive map.
The first incarnation of the map which is installed in The Bonington Gallery for Sensitive Skin, features work by five artists from the last three years of the Expo festival for emerging artists, curated by Graft for Future Factory at Nottingham Trent University.
