Mark Fairnington, Collected and Possessed

Solo exhibition at the Horniman Museum, 28

November 2015 - 24 January 2016.

The exhibition was funded by a crowd

funding campaign run by the Art Fund.

This was an exhibition devised and curated

by Mark Fairnington who designed the

exhibition space and selected the work. It

was significant as a curatorial research

project that brought together paintings

made by the artist over the last 15 years

including large-scale mounted insects the

size of humans, birds of paradise specimens,

panoramic views of specimens in the Natural

History Museum stores, and paintings of

life-sized prize winning bulls.
