Amber Eve Anderson’s solo exhibition Something Worth Doing is a playful reflection on the objects with which we surround ourselves, and the comforts they provide, both physically and psychologically. The exhibition includes sculptures made of natural materials, online purchases, cardboard boxes, and inherited objects, as well as a series of photographs and monoprints.
