Abi Palmer : Slime Mother
Abi Palmer’s debut solo exhibition creates an alternate universe where, rather than treated with disgust, slugs are worshipped.
Why be a slug? Across artist Abi Palmer’s exhibition, events and cinema programme you’re invited to enter a world of iridescent queerness and more-than-human ways of being that will leave you feeling a little more slug-like.
All tickets for the Slime Mother Cinema series are at the discounted price of £5 plus booking fee. Use code SLIME5.
The Gallery will open to the public at 1.30pm on Saturday 7 September.

International in outlook and embedded in Wales, we work with artists locally and globally. From solo presentations and group exhibitions to interventions and residencies, we collaborate with artists at all stages of their careers, supporting them to realise ambitious ideas and new ways of working.
The artists we work with actively engage with critical questions and issues that shape our present. We foster dialogue between audiences, artists and their practice through a public programme. This enables multiple opportunities to connect, (un)learn and reflect on our histories, the way we live now and how we might imagine new futures.
Chapter Gallery is open Tuesday-Sunday, 11am-5pm.
