We Can Only See Today

05/01/2019 – 10/02/2019

A solo exhibition by Yoke, artist collaborators Annie Nelson and Chris Woodward

For their first UK solo exhibition, Yoke were commissioned by Tŷ Pawb to produce a new body of work responding to research and time spent in Wrexham.

Influenced by an exploration of Wrexham’s market history and Tŷ Pawb’s current occupants, Yoke delved into the stories and narratives of its evolution. From the travelling fairs through to its position today as culture and trade meet.

‘We Can Only See Today’ combined newspaper articles, selected from Wrexham Museum archives, with new artworks including a new market bell for Tŷ Pawb, in a bid to examine this unique culture/trade relationship and share ideas with the audience.
