The 'SBP connection' was a mini show located in the connecting corridor between two solo shows; 'Vigil Star' by Dan Shipsides and 'Still not out of the woods' by Neal Beggs. Images from both shows are precented here along side the SBP works.
In addition to their individual practices Beggs and Shipsides often work together under the title 'Shipsides and Beggs Projects' and on this occasion decided to use the connecting corridor to exhibit works resulting from their research trip to Marmolada in 2010. Marmolada is the highest peak in the Italian Dolomites.
The text and image work entitled Marmolada Bees gives some insight into the context surrounding the works and can be viewed in pdf form here.
Also relating to this text is the video work Bivacco. A short version of Bivacco can be seen here in flv with full screen option and here in mp4 for iphone and ipad.
A dedicated website for Shipsides and Beggs Projects in under-construction at www.shipsidesandbeggsprojects.co.uk and should be fully functional for the Autunm.
