GLASGOW.- This autumn, Harold Offeh will transform our front gallery into a sci-fi playscape, creating collaborative encounters between audiences and artists.

Co-commissioned with Baltic Gateshead, The Mothership Collective 2:0 will invite visitors of all ages to imagine potential futures by visiting stations throughout the exhibition, each one drawing on sci-fi, futurisms and utopian thinking. Using sound, text and objects, visitors will be encouraged to explore their creativity and have collaborative encounters that explore what different futures might look like.

The project will revisit concepts the artist explored in The Mothership Collective at South London Gallery in 2006 which saw Offeh invite fellow artists, dancers and musicians to create work with members of the public inspired by ideas of Afrofuturist mythology in the music and performances of George Clinton and Sun-Ra.

For two decades Harold Offeh has produced work including performance, video, photography, learning and social arts practice. His playful and often provocative works employ humour as a means to confront the viewer with historical narratives and contemporary culture.





The exhibition will invite and support exploration of future possibilities for play and interaction. The space will be defined by play areas investigating landscape and habitats, identity through costume, patterns through sound and sensory experience, and prophesies and prediction through writing. Visitors will be encouraged to make noise, interact with the exhibition, and explore through play.

The exhibition will continue until 7 February 2027. Free entry.
