Isobel Cawley is an independent curator based in Morecambe. She follows a research-led practice that brings critical discourse into dialogue with contemporary art, and is particularly interested in the research capacity of exhibition-making practices that are sensitive to the environment and to the choreographic. Her curatorial work foregrounds process-based approaches, understanding the exhibition as a space of anticipation.

CBS Gallery
Liverpool
7 - 27 June 2025
Footnotes brings together works by current CBS studio members as they articulate their sensitivities towards knowledge, perception and collaboration. The exhibition maps correspondences between methods of research gathering and sharing, embracing research as a communicative tool. Rejecting resolution, it foregrounds processes of exchange and provisionality as critical possibilities.
Featuring works by Emma Deaton, Gregory Herbert, Joseph Hulme, Paula Kolar, KOZ, JC Leisure, JoMo, Valentina Passerini and Keziah Thomas-Mellor.
CBS Gallery and Studios is an artist-run space encouraging process-led work, cross-disciplinary thinking, and representing a commitment to making space for risk, play, and critical reflection.
