The Sound-Image Research Group is pleased to announce the upcoming exhibition For Want of (not) Measuring by Jim Hobbs and Patrick Adam Jones at Kingsgate Projects in London.

Over the past 8 months,Hobbs and Jones have developed individual and collaborative bodies of work which explore the problematic and poetic use of systems and measurement within their work. Where measurement often focuses on quantitative results, the two artists instead choose a more metaphysical approach to exploit the corporeal use of measuring apparatuses to subvert their intended outcome.  Surveying sticks, physical grids, light meters (amongst many other tools) are all used to point out the futility, absurdity and impossibility of truly knowing the world around us.  For this exhibition, both artists will present new work including drawings, photographs, objects, sound, and an immersive film/video installation.

The exhibition will open on 31 March with a Private View for the public from 6-9 PM.  The exhibition will then run from 1 April to 23 April, 2022.  All are welcome.
