In the Days of Shilling and Halfpenny

At a meeting about a new project I am involved in with Holy Trinity Church called Retail Soulmate I was able to take in the exhibition set up at the church by Blank Canvas. The title of this blog and the exhibition refers to William Halfpenny - an architect commissioned to design Holy Trinity Church whose designs for it were never brought about. Holy Trinity Church, working with the new Trinity Shopping Centre next to it - is aiming to develop an arts space and closes sections for refurbishment in May. In early May there will be an exhibition called "Retail Soulmate" featuring the work of me and other photographers / film-makers selected to bring together works around the theme of shopping in Leeds. More of that as it progresses but for now if you want to see the group exhibition "In the Days of Shilling and Halfpenny" you have until Saturday to see works by new and emerging artists in a unique location. Don`t miss it!
