Curator Tour: PELT

PELT is a group exhibition due to be presented in January 2026 at the Old Waiting Room, a historic space located above Peckham Rye Station, originally constructed during the Victorian era. The site’s layered history provides a resonant context for an exhibition concerned with the surface as a site of memory, transformation and mortality.

The exhibition will examine the dual role of skin as both a symbolic and material threshold, a subject long embedded in art history and increasingly central to contemporary discourse surrounding the body. Through painting, sculpture and installation, the participating artists address the visual and cultural tension between the representation of aging flesh and the pursuit of idealised perfection.
