Mickey Smith: Morphologies

Fine Art Photography Exhibition at The Arts House Trust

Mickey Smith is a master chronicler of libraries, having turned her camera to these repositories of knowledge for over two decades. Her prolific series explore the life cycles of library collections and the labour of those who steward them.

Morphologies presents insights through work from her long-form documentary Volume, plus highlights from Denudation, As You Will: Carnegie Libraries of the South Pacific and new installation-based artworks. From chained libraries to digitisation, deaccessioning and artificial intelligence, Morphologies asks us to consider our evolving relationships with books and the institutions that shape our collective cultural memory.
