The NewBridge Project is delighted to present Simon Says/Dadda, an exhibition by artist Beverley Bennett, exploring father/daughter relationships among Black and Asian women and non-binary individuals, highlighting the deep impact that structural inequalities have within wider society. At the NewBridge Project, Beverley will bring together for the first time the newly commissioned 3-channel film installation with a single screen film work, introducing the artist’s own voice to a constellation of testimonies and footage made over the past five years.
Working in partnership with Metal, Liverpool, LUX, London and Grand Union, Birmingham, Simon Says/Dadda is an ambitious large-scale film project developed through a series of gatherings across England, bringing to light stories that are currently not represented in the visual arts space.
