COAL FACE at Sunderland Museum and Winter Gardens @louisepowell.bsky.social @martintype.bsky.social are brilliant

@martintype.bsky.social and @louisepowell.bsky.social have created the most wonderful exhibition combining outstanding photography and words to create CoalFace. It's on now at Sunderland Museum & Winter Gardens. Please go and see it if you can. Then see it again.

We decided to consciously forgo the traditional guestbook at the COAL FACE exhibition in lieu of a giant bar of Pit Head Baths soap. If you visit, please write a comment or two and hoy it into the soap. ☺️

We’re into week 2 of the COAL FACE exhibition, extremely proud of the work @louisepowell.bsky.social and me have produced together. Hot off the press today are these A3 handouts/posters, free to all visitors. Open today at Sunderland Museum and Winter Gardens until 4pm.

If you're interested in photography, there's also a brilliant, free Q&A panel on 'Photographing the Coal Face' between @martintype.bsky.social & @narbiprice.bsky.social which takes place on the same day: www.sunderlandculture.org.uk/whats-on/coa...

😮40 new paintings. Never-before-heard voices Going Back Brockens is a bold new project across Co Durham featuring a major exhibition by Narbi Price & Mark Hudson. Through 40 new paintings & unheard interviews, it explores the legacy of the Miners’ Strike, 40 years on. Info: tinyurl.com/mr3bfuvt

Blown away by the new Coal Face exhibition. A monumental effort and incredible attention to detail from @martintype.bsky.social plus powerful words from @louisepowell.bsky.social. Go and see this show. Open now at Sunderland Museum & Winter Gardens www.sunderlandculture.org.uk/whats-on/coa...

No, really this time...will be getting rid of my account at 'the other place which was once class' in the not too distant. Bear with me while I figure this one out. (gonna mostly just be posting photos)
