New art collective launches with exhibition exploring life with cancer

A new art collective called Sussex Cancer Art and Research (S.C.A.R.) launches with an exhibition titled "Drawn Out: Lines Beyond the Limen" at Dorset Place Gallery in Brighton. Curated by University of Brighton graduate Markus Taylor, who was diagnosed with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukaemia in 2021, the show features works by local artists living with or affected by cancer. Taylor incorporates his own cancerous blood as a medium in one piece, symbolizing his diagnosis and the emotional realities of the disease.
