A new group exhibition has opened at The Bottle Factory, exploring how the domesticated dog reflects the instincts, structures and contradictions of human behaviour.

Dogs have long held a mirror to human nature. Domesticated over millenia, they have been shaped not just by evolution but by the desires, fears and fantasies of the people who live beside them.

Curated by OHSH Projects, the exhibition examines the complex relationship between humans and dogs, where affection is often entangled with control, and loyalty with legacy.

A series of free public events accompany the exhibition, including a Dog & Owner Portrait session with contributing artist Tulani Hlalo – for full details and to book visit OHSH Projects.

The exhibition is open Thursday – Saturday, 12:00 – 17:00, or by appointment, and closes 21 September 2025.
