Angel Row Gallery is pleased to present Day-to-Day Data an exhibition of work by artists who collect, list, database and absurdly
analyse the data of everyday life. By taking a methodical and scientific approach to questioning the world around them, the artists are able to give a new and often amusing vision of our own daily existence.
The exhibition features: Abigail Reynolds will create a new installation in her series of work exploring the interlinking histories of words.
Ellie Harrison, will carry out a daily data feed to the gallery for the duration of the exhibition. Personal data collected from the previous day will be presented on a specially constructed and constantly evolving Daily Data Display Wall.
Hannah Brown will issue her Daily Efficiency and Behavioural Analysis Self-evaluation Checklists to visitors and test whether they can match up to her vision of the perfect day.
Helen Frosi will display her findings of Life/Lotto, a study into whether the winning Lottery numbers can be found in ciphers hidden in her coffee dregs and other miniscule daily occurrences.
Lucy Kimbell will carry out a live survey on the people of Nottingham. Visitors will be asked to respond to a question by removing and keeping different coloured sweets from the six large perspex cylinders which form her Physical Bar Chart.
Visitors to the exhibition will be invited to use Christian Nold’s Bio Mapping devices on the streets of Nottingham.
