Sonia Boyce | Like Love: Parts One & Two

Solo show at The Bluecoat Gallery. 2010
Date: 30 January, 2010 until 28 March, 2010

Part of Liverpool and the Black Atlantic. “An exhibition exploring universal ideas around care, and the emotions we invest in others. Evolving across partner venues in Bristol, Liverpool and Stoke, each manifestation of Like Love is different.”

The exhibition itself consisted of two installations. Part Two was: “An installation made in collaboration with Blue Room, an arts service for learning disabled adults based at the Bluecoat in partnership with Liverpool City Council.” (From the gallery handout). Consisted of a series of inkjet prints mounted onto aluminium and looped DVDs, involving individuals and a group of people with whom Boyce worked, in 2010.

“Boyce had conversations with Blue Room members on the topics of love, and then filmed them dancing to their favourite love songs on Crosby beach.”
