Studio International | Catching Flies With Honey Review

Beth Williamson for Studio International writes:

“Contemporary photography, as it has developed over the last 40 years or so, would not be the same without the innovative work of the Black British artist Joy Gregory. Working in film, photography, installation and textiles, she has, across four decades, expanded methods, materials, content and approach. The scope and extent of her wide-ranging practice is immediately evident in this survey show, sharing more than 250 of her works. It is astonishing that this is the first major survey show of her work and more astonishing still when you realise the range of her practice, from Victorian photographic techniques (think cyanotypes and kallitypes) to digital media, performance and more.”
