Opening on Friday 24th March, 6-9, VALLEY OF THE MOON- an exhibition and publication launch from Chris Mann & Guest Editions

With special thanks to Northern Monk with whom refreshments will be available from on the evening

Jordan’s Wadi Rum desert, translated literally as 'Valley of the Moon' in English, is renowned for its red sands, Mars-like topography, and nomadic Bedouin tribes. The series traces the viewer's imagination through a stark depiction of this dream-like world and its ephemera; offering a subjective window into a reality unbound by time or place. 

A landscape both unchanged for thousands of years, yet seemingly transient, Valley of the Moon presents a visual dialogue with the desert and its transcendental oscillations between man and nature, light and dark, reality and imagination.
