CENTRE FOR CONTEMPORARY PHOTOGRAPHY (CCP)

Wonky

Polly Borland's series Wonky presents an idiosyncratic and touching meditation on love, juxtaposed with a unique selection of her documentary photographs, images that have informed Wonky.

Let the Healing Begin

The idea that art makes us better people, that it heals our souls, is an anathema. In the art world, 'art therapy' is the butt of endless jokes.
