Our ‘Primers’ are artists’ talks offering an opportunity to hear from artists during the development of new projects with The Common Guild. As part of the upcoming project ‘anywhere in the universe’, this first event in a new series brings Yuri Pattison to Glasgow to talk about his artistic practice to date.

The practice of Yuri Pattison connects and materialises the intangible spaces between the virtual and physical through video, sculpture, installation, and online platforms. It explores how new technologies such as the digital economy and online communication have shifted and impacted the systemic frameworks of the built environment, daily life, and our perceptions of time, space, and nature.
