About
Join artist Doug Cannell as he takes you deeper into the unusual series of artworks he calls Backstories. Cannell is a muti-disciplinary artist who uses woodworking, sculpting, graphic design, writing and photography to create installations that entice viewers to explore them, each revealing a surprising and unconventional story.
These works are engaging, but in what many have described as a “post-truth era”, they might be particularly relevant, prompting people to question their own gullibility, their willingness to accept something as the truth just because it’s presented to them in a convincing and authoritative way.
Limit of 34.
