Exhibition · Manchester

Michaela Yearwood-Dan's first UK institutional show turns the Whitworth into one layered, immersive installation — 14 new paintings, six ceramic vessels, and sound woven together around themes of healing and self-transformation. It's ambitious, generous, and genuinely worth returning to more than once.
Best of all, it's free, step-free throughout, and set inside the gallery's lovely park-facing café wing — an easy, unhurried afternoon whatever the weather does outside.
