UXBRIDGE Arts and Culture, in partnership with PHOTO OP., presents LONG COVID, a two-person exhibition by artists Matt Henry and Emil McAvoy at UXBRIDGE’S Malcolm Smith Gallery. Developed from an extended dialogue that began during Aotearoa’s first COVID-19 lockdown, the exhibition explores the enduring cultural, political, and emotional resonances of the pandemic through the language of abstraction.
