Exciting new gallery, confusingly which is a couple of galleries at a masquerade in a church hall.. The 
marquis de sade would smile. The chapmans have crafted a menagerie of shitting animals. Carefully 
constructed out of ping pong balls and other junk. They look quite nice. Somehow you wish they were 
less well made, less precise, they are not crazy, loony, messy, hard enough. At the heart of the 
chapmen are hobbyists at heart, not great artists, pace mr searle, clever and nimble, but stuck to their 
glue and need to show off.
