319 SCHOLES is pleased to present the premiere of WALLPAPERS, an immersive, 3,000 sq ft installation designed by new media artists, Nicolas Sassoon and Sara Ludy. Throughout the past year, these two artists have explored the concept of domestic space as a definition of identity and representation through online collaborations and projects.
