Beastly Machines

Visit The Harley Gallery from 18 April to 10 June for a whole herd of arty animals made by acclaimed Derbyshire based sculptor Johnny White.

Johhny's artworks are humorous, imaginitive, irreverent and often very noisy! Pull handles, turn cranks and push buttons to disco...ver what these automated animals have in store.

From wiggly fishes to a cycling mosquito and a thrush busily battling the rush hour, these sculptures will make you smile, wonder and maybe make you jump! This promises to be an unmissable exhibition that will capture the imagination of visitors of all ages.

Lovingly handmade in Johnny's workshop in Derbyshire, these playful animal automata are often crafted from found or salvaged junk. The exhibition also has a gaggle of games to play with - test how well you know your mythological creatures or unjumble the animals.

Beastly Machines is a touring exhibtion from 20-21 Visual Arts Centre, Scunthorpe, supported by the National Lottery through Arts Council England.
