Elysium Gallery, Swansea
Sat 4 – Sat 25 Mar
The End is By Yur is a month-long exhibition that explores the notion of the afterlife. The group accepts many submissions, that are open to everyone anyone. The event dives deep into the ideas of heaven and hell, while being shamelessly playful in their blasphemy. This collection of dapper cadavers celebrates the morbid fun of surreal art and their night-time performances.
Elysium encourages everyone to grab a pint and let the posthumous posse guide you through the underworld and satire of their gallery.
Don’t be fooled though! Not every piece will be a goth’s dream. Some will be focusing on the ideas of the heavenly, providing calm alongside the chaos, suggestions of godly answers together with the constant human state of confusion.
There are performers, as well as galleries, to get the audiences questioning their spirituality. Also, there’s a Performance Walk from 5pm starting at Hanbury Pub, while the actual exhibition lunches at 7pm.
For those who don’t know, Elysium Gallery was first established in 2007 and now provides 60 creative spaces all over Swansea City, with anything from visual artists to designers, writers to photographers. Be there, and be part of Wales’ ever growing artistic identity.
