STOURBRIDGE conceptual artist Cal will be holding an exhibition at Netherton Arts Centre this Friday (December 13).

The 36-year-old artist's Don't Look at That, Look at This! exhibition will be held at the NAC's new gallery space in Northfield Road from 7pm onwards.

Cal, who was born in Worcester, aims to highlight world political social and economic issues through his paintings, sculpture, installations, photography, design, embroidery and experimental projects.

The exhibition, which runs for a month until January 13 2014, focusses on dreams and realities and features mixed media sculpture Powerless which Cal created as a reaction to constant price hikes by global energy companies following a dispute with his power provider.

He said: "One moment I was being told that I was powerless and trapped within their contracts, whilst they increase prices at any point. Then I realised I was not powerless."

The exhibition will also include live music from a saxophone quartet.
