With constant re-edits and enhancements we transform everything we touch as part of our evolutionary mutation. In Greek mythology Prometheus was a demigod and a Titan worshipped by craftsmen. Greek Titans were ultimately honoured as the ancestors of humans, who in turn were attributed with "the invention of the arts and magic" (Graves 1964). The artists featured in *Children of Prometheus* at Furtherfield Gallery explore the possible consequences of our scientific and technological imaginings for us as individuals, our society and the world at large. We look forward to introducing you to the artworks, the artists, and discussing the ideas and issues that they raise. If you haven't been to Furtherfield Gallery before, take a look at the map <http://crm.furtherfield.org/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=1186&qid=152610> to plan your visit. The exhibition continues 1 July - 20 August 2017, every Saturday and Sunday, 11am - 5pm or by appointment.
