What is Second Sight?

Welcome to Second Sight, a new online gallery showcasing the work and practice of the creative communities in Macclesfield, a market town on the edge of the Peak District.

Second Sight has been brought to you by Barnaby Festival, in partnership with arts organisation and innovation lab FutureEverything and artists living and working in Macclesfield, in response to the Covid-19 pandemic.

Looking Forwards

Looking Forwards is an opportunity to find out how emerging artists are approaching their work and practice. We ask them about where they find inspiration and how their background informs the work they produce.
