"Jason and the adventure of 254" c/o Wellcome Collection

"A work by artist Jason Wilsher-Mills is displayed at the Wellcome Collection ahead of the opening of a solo exhibition at the London museum. "Jason and the adventure of 254" reimagines the gallery space as a hospital ward and features huge sculptures, illustrations and interactive dioramas that draw on the artist's experience of becoming disabled at the age of 11.

The exhibition's title alludes to 2.54pm at Pinderfields Hospital, Wakefield, on August 1 1980, when Wilsher-Mills watched from his hospital bed as his parents were told he was suffering from an autoimmune condition brought on by a bout of chicken pox.

The free exhibition opens tomorrow (21st March) and runs until January." p.2.
