OUTPUT gallery works exclusively with creatives from or based in Merseyside. In this episode, we interview exhibitor Joseph Cotgrave and learn about his relationship with art, the exhibition he did at OUTPUT and the thinking behind it. Earlier this year, Cotgrave transformed the space into a nightclub with sculptures, music, a smoke machine and sticky floors. He wanted to use the exhibition as a way of opening up conversations around the culture of the gay scene, chem sex, and the stigma surrounding HIV.
