jottaContemporary in collaboration with Jeff Coombs Projects and Manchester metropolitan University present Space Within an exhibition that exists within the interior space of a vacant shop in Triangle Shopping Centre, Manchester.

The exhibition is aimed at exploring the relationship between object and the space in which it occupies. Site-specific artworks created with materials sourced form the local areas transform the space with both sculptural and analog methods of practice challenging a sense of passing idealism that modern architecture now exemplifies. Artworks engage with and appropriate the architectural setting and refer to materials, both visible and invisible, found in the everyday space.

jottaCONTEMPORARY identifies young and emerging artists who utilise varying discourses and disciplines. By creating an online profile of artwork on jotta.com artists are given a platform for their work to be viewed, discussed and interacted with; encouraging artists to explore diverse projects and new approaches to exhibiting. jottaContemporary selects artists from within the jotta community, as well as showcasing artists who are still studying, recently graduated and working with young collectives all over London.
