The Gallery at The Hospital, which is located on the ground floor and is open to the public is currently showing a new video work Anyone else isn’t you by Iain Forsyth and Jane Pollard. T he work is a 30 minute unscripted portrait of 12 young people talking directly to the camera about love and loss. Inspired by the common practice of recording favourite or significant music at home on cassette, the work is very personal but at the same time universal. On Saturday, 25 June 2pm there will be a free talk in The Gallery led by JJ Charlesworth, a writer and curator.
