About the exhibition
The Mill is excited to present Object Permanence, a new exhibition by Bri Hammond developed through The Mill’s Photographer in Residence program, presented with support from the Ana and Christopher Koch Foundation.
For Object Permanence Bri has developed a personal project examining the relationship between objects and memory, connecting generations of her family through unlikely treasures. Bri’s signature bright colours and playful aesthetic elicit common memories of childhood.
