LAMB is pleased to present The Opening of a Crisp Packet – A Show about Storytelling, an installation of new ceramic works by Alma Berrow (b. 1992, United Kingdom). For her third solo presentation with the gallery, Berrow begins with a familiar vision: friends, old and new, glasses raised, stories exchanged, crisps shared. The crinkling foil, spread flat on the table, signals all hands to reach and partake in an unspoken ritual of togetherness. From this everyday gesture, the artist’s initial invitation unfolds into a more lavish offering: a journey through memories and mythical spaces, first greeted by ancient wells brimming with water before moving through to a feast at the heart of the exhibition. A table set for one, yet speaking to many, Berrow shares her tale in the tradition of storytelling, often amid gatherings, maybe accompanied by the rustling of a freshly opened crisp packet.
