‘A Pocket Full Of Plenty’, is a group show curated by Papillon Projects, an exhibition platform set up by Scarlett Pochet and Moriah Ogunbiyi.

‘A Pocket Full Of Plenty’ exhibits a series of artworks/objects reimagined and reinterpreted by artists, which attempt to shine light on themes of transmogrification, migration, agency, ritual, childhood, nature and personal intimacies. In support of charities, Hypha Studios (@hyphastudios) and Women For Refugee Women (@4refugeewomen), our collective, Papillon Projects (@papillonprojects_) hopes to initiate thoughts on ‘the object’ of plenty and what being plenty[ful] means to individual identities. With the show’s focus on objects and their significance in both history and people’s lives, we hope to highlight personal symbolisms that certain items can hold and the sacrifices people make when forced to leave their homes and their belongings.

Scarlett and Moriah are planning to put on several ticketed events, including film screenings and various workshops during their occupation at Netil House in order to both raise money and awareness for Women For Refugee Women. They hope, through the collaboration of artists and charities, to bring ‘the gallery’ and ‘globe’ closer together and not as two separate entities; to create community and generate awareness for the women which the charity supports.
