HQ

Colwick Industrial Estate
October 2007

HQ was a temporary space rented by Hinterland throughout October 2007. This was to showcase some of the new photography commissions undertaken in the summer curated by Victor Simao. HQ was situated in an simple lock-ip unit made of concrete and breeze block which lay amongst the literal hinterland which is Colwick Industrial Park and adjacent to the city's out of site services such as waste management depots, storage units, factories and garages. Visitors were encouraged to take the bus out of town to this little known pocket of the city and walk though the industrial estate to HQ.  The site was also very close to the Trent itself through a small cut-through path in the hedgerow.
