You Are Very Welcome To Browse, Again
A show by Abbie Freeman and Harry Watson
Every year, art school spits out another wave of graduates, and the uncertainty and aimlessness of post-grad life quickly sets in. “You are very welcome to browse” is the result of Harlow based studio, Snootie Studios navigating life after uni, and relying on retail jobs to make ends meet. After a post-graduation trip to the U.S., Abbie Freeman and Harry Watson decided to set up Snootie Studios in their hometown, Harlow. Working in the likes of HMV, Sainsbury’s and The Works, Abbie and Harry found an interest in the monotony retail creates.
“You Are Very Welcome To Browse Again” is the product of the search for finding the good in every shitty part-time job. This show is second edition of their previous show in Sluice Gallery, Hackney, with some new and adapted works.
PV - Saturday 30th June, 6 till late.
Then open till 8th July 10-4 everyday
9th - 15th July a window show
