Press Release

Artist and musician Paul Purgas presents a new installation this autumn within Dilston Gallery, informed by his research into the histories of design, sound and spiritual philosophy innate to Modernism’s evolution and development within South Asia. Addressing the context of Dilston Gallery and the surrounding parkland the work explores sonic and design methodologies through localised production and collective making, evoking themes of the proximal, temporal and holistic. Commissioned by Southwark Park Galleries, London, and generously supported by Arts Council England and The Paul and Louise Cooke Endowment.

Established in 1984 (formerly known as CGP London), the organisation is rooted in the local community while maintaining an international outlook, commissioning and presenting free exhibitions by emerging, overlooked, and established British and international artists.
