Jyll Bradley’s exhibition Running and Returning is currently on show at The Box Plymouth ✨

A recent review from FAD Magazine highlights Bradley’s unique exploration of light, identity, and nature through her art. I's a must-see exhibition featuring a variety of photography, films, and installation. As FAD Magazine notes, "This is only a mid-career survey, and she told us she’s only getting started."

Running and returning is free to visit, and is situated in St Luke's until 2 November.
