Uncertain Ruins a site-responsive exhibition by artist Julie F Hill and Gauld Architecture that draws on the social, material and historical context of the Swiss Cottage Library in which the gallery is located. Sculpture, video and photographic works have been made using a mix of artificial intelligence algorithms trained on astronomical datasets and related holdings from Swiss Cottage Library to consider the library’s potential as a container for all knowledge. www.passen-gers.co.uk/uncertainruins Passengers is a site-specific exhibition series that explores the historical, social and material contexts of various sites and architecture. The series aims to promote dialogue between art and architecture, exploring the contemporary built environment. For its inaugural series, supported by Arts Council England, artists presented work sequentially to explore the real and imaginative associations of the Brunswick Centre, a Modernist, mixed residential and commercial development in Bloomsbury, London.The project has since expanded to incorporate offsite exhibitions, residencies and publications. www.passen-gers.co.uk
