Made in response to the fire that took place at Grenfell Tower in North Kensington, West London in 2017 — a tragedy in which 72 people died — to create a lasting legacy, McQueen filmed the tower before it was covered in hoarding.
This billboard shows an aerial view of Bray Head, County Wicklow, Ireland. A gorse fire has revealed letters in the landscape spelling EIRE, with the first letter barely visible. EIRE is an anglicised misspelling of Éire, the Irish word for Ireland, and the official Irish language name for the country since 1937.
Common/Wealth brings together artists Ophelia Dos Santos, Kyle Legall, Vanja Garaj, Gavin Porter, and Jon Pountney for a new exhibition.
We introduce situated testimony—a bespoke methodology developed within Forensic Architecture—as a tool for building collective memory. Using digital modelling and spatial reconstruction, we revisit the site of the incident to reassemble fragmented experiences. This approach allows us to speak across difference, and to articulate a shared truth in spaces such as tribunals.
Forensic Architecture (FA), a research agency based at Goldsmiths, University of London, will screen two films which form part of their wider investigation into the events surrounding the fire.
Leanne Wood and Beth Winter have held a series of community assemblies in the valleys.
This event will ask, what happens to people who become destitute? How do we ensure everyone in Wales has adequate housing? And how do we truly make Wales a home for everyone?

Whose voices are heard in museums, whose histories are told, and how does exploring the past shape the future of anti-racism?
We're working with Sophie Mak-Schram on this project.
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.
