An exhibition of new work stemming from a project the artist begun in 2001, involving the ongoing collecting of dust from museums and galleries around the world from which the artist cultures bacteria.

Dust contains all and everything, settling almost everywhere, it is a resident of every crevice and country, and made up of all things, both synthetic and natural. Occurring as a byproduct of all activity, marking and attacking those zones and objects that appear inactive, defunct, resting, whilst simultaneously marking out the contact of an absence. Dust is a distinct paradox in the world of institutionalised history and serves as a record of all who come to visit art in its multifarious homes, for we all come from dust, and to dust we shall return.

The studious longevity of the artists accumulation of dust over nearly 25 years now contains samples from hundreds of institutions. For this new exhibition, the artist has focussed on dust collected in Room 18 at the British Museum, the current resting place of The Parthenon Marbles, alongside other new work.
