Opening our 2026 summer season, The Art House presents Winner of the Mark Tanner Sculpture Award 2024-25, Harriet Bowman with the exhibition Slow Puncture, an ambitious installation exploring the entanglement of body, vehicle and material.

In this new work, Bowman explores language, industry and secondary use of materials through a range of media, including glass, metal, rubber and ceramics. Bowman reshapes everyday industrial matter into fragile, fractured forms that speak of labour, repair and vulnerability. Glass headrests slump, tyres collapse, and welded supports cradle precarious fragments, objects balanced between humour and unease.
