A group exhibition, curated by Aaron Juneau, centered on the notion of "making marks" or 'mark making' in its broadest sense.
From the early Palaeolithic era and the very dawn of mankind, human beings have had an innate compulsion to externalise their thoughts and feelings, to pause and reflect on the past and present or prophetically envisage the future by way of creating images or simply producing visual or audible gestures.
A phenomenon that has continually diversified throughout history, from the first marks of humankind found deep within the Lascaux caves of Southern France to improvised music as a form of expressionistic sound drawing, ‘making marks’ has expanded to encompass every artistic medium and has been firmly established as a crucial provisional process in the formulation of all creative ventures. It might be said that much of an artists work goes unseen, becoming relegated to the recesses of the studio space. However, perhaps it is this unseen work that is pivotal to the constitution of all masterworks; an essential formative process, rooted in irresolution yet loaded with latent possibility.
The show encompasses many practicing visual artists including those within artist’s collectives in Nottingham and the surrounding areas with artist’s submissions from around the country. Work includes: textual, drawn, scrawled or scribbled, painted, photographed, filmed or videoed, recorded, spoken and performed.

The exhibition includes work by many of the formost hologram artists and other key innovators in the field - milestones from holographic history - along with some of the latest technical developments.
"In holography, our age is still the pioneering age, and the 1980's and 90's are the first age of holographic excellence. The artists who have chosen to work in the new medium are explorers that in later times will be accorded the same interest as Fox Talbot, Roger Fenton and Camille Silvy."
Chris Titterington. Former Assistant Curator of Photography, Victoria and Albert Museum.
The exhibition, devised by Jonathan Ross in association with curators from Banbury Museum and the Oxfordshire County Museum, has been mainly drawn from the Ross collection with support from various leading hologram makers. It comprises over 60 key works.

Arts Council England commissioned Axis to curate an exhibition on the first floor of its national office at Great Peter Street in London. Using the Axis website Arts Council England staff selected nine works which were installed in July 2010.
Axis aimed to reflect the diversity of work being produced around the country and selected 9 artists from their online arts directory.
Arts Council staff were asked to curate the exhibition by selecting artworks from each of the nine English regions. The selected was installed for 17 months at the Council's Great Peter Street London headquarters.
The piece selected by Axis and the Arts Council staff, from Andrew Pepper, was Cut Column, a laser-cut 'drawing' based on an earlier holographic monoprint, “Centre Column”, produced in 1989 and now held in the Lauk Collection, Germany.
