SUMMARY:Dysmas Orbis — Book Launch
DESCRIPTION:Join published and exhibited London artist and author Robert John for the launch of Dysmas Orbis\, a speculative urban fantasy set within a hidden parallel London. \nRobert John has spent years creating a surreal visual version of London through his photographic and digital art practice. His work has been exhibited and published\, including LDN Reimagined\, a traditionally published art book with Unicorn Publishing Group. Dysmas Orbis is the literary continuation of that visual world — taking the surreal London he created through images and developing it into a five-book speculative fiction series. \nThe novel explores identity\, belonging\, relationships\, displacement and what it means to be seen\, drawing on Robert’s own experiences of growing up in South London and his father’s battle with Parkinson’s disease and dementia. \nExpect a London that is recognisable but not quite right — spider trees\, flower lamps\, giant machines\, secret societies and a hidden world existing alongside our own. \nThe launch will include a Q & A\, reading from the novel and a look behind the creation of the book and its visual world. Guests will receive a complimentary drink on arrival and a free special edition A5 art print with every signed first edition of Dysmas Orbis purchased on the night. \nEarly praise for Dysmas Orbis\n\n“His London is animate\, alarming\, astonishing.”— Iain Sinclair \n\n\n“Gripping and assured… Richly and beautifully written\, Dysmas Orbis is a tender story that will keep you turning the pages and stay with you long after the last page.”— Ivy Ngeow\, award-winning author \n\n\n“A brooding tale of fissured reality where freedom is swallowed whole.”— Sudhana Singh\, award-winning memoirist & journalist \n\n\n“Prepare to step into a gritty and mythical version of London\, with secret societies and spider trees. Robert John has created an alternate London that feels both familiar and fantastical.”— Tabish Khan\, art critic for Londonist

SUMMARY:Desire to Create: Baťa's Architecture of Belonging
DESCRIPTION:The Czech Centre London\, in collaboration with the Tomáš Baťa Foundation and the Bata Heritage Centre\, marks the 150th anniversary of Czech entrepreneur Tomáš Baťa\, founder of the global Baťa Shoe Company\, with an exhibition exploring his achievements\, guiding principles\, and their realisation in East Tilbury. It reveals how ideas about work\, culture\, sport\, health and community were embedded in the design of the built environment. \nThe exhibition unfolds in two complementary strands. Desire to Create presents Baťa’s legacy as a comprehensive philosophy\, uniting work with service\, enterprise with education\, and personal development with responsibility towards others – not as a relic of the past\, but as a continuing source of inspiration. Baťa’s Architecture of Belonging brings East Tilbury to life through architectural drawings\, historic photographs and original artefacts\, evoking its distinctive modernist atmosphere. Together\, they trace how ideas were translated into built form – from vision to planning\, from planning to everyday life – creating a cohesive narrative of belonging\, work and community. \nOrganised by the Czech Centre London in partnership with the Bata Heritage Centre. \n\nEXHIBITION OPENING\nThursday 9 April 2026\, 6.30 – 8.30 pm\nFree entry\, Register Here\nEXHIBITION DATES: 10 April – 12 June 2026\nVENUE & OPENING TIMES\nVitrínka Gallery\, Czech Centre London\n30 Kensington Palace Gardens\, London\, W8 4QY\nOpening hours: Tue – Fri 10 am – 5 pm

SUMMARY:Imagine That! : Solo Art Exhibition by The Cameron Twins
DESCRIPTION:Imagine That! is the latest solo exhibition by The Cameron Twins\, opening at Protein Studios in East London and celebrating imagination through a playful\, nostalgic lens! \nThe exhibition brings together a wide range of works\, including large hand-pulled silkscreen prints\, collage\, mixed-media canvases\, sculpture\, and large-scale installation. The show will be open to the public from Friday\, 27th February to Saturday\, 28th February from 10 am to 7 pm each day. \n” Childhood is full of wild invention\, messy logic and unfiltered fun\, where fantasy is instinctive and always alive…but as we grow older\, that same sense of whimsy and wonder often fades. ‘Imagine that!’ playfully explores the tension between childhood and adulthood\, the ongoing tug-of-war between responsibility and fun\, and the internal battle to keep imagination alive. It celebrates the effort it takes to stay playful\, and the stubborn persistence of childhood imagination that refuses to behave!” – The Cameron Twins \nThe Cameron Twins are identical twins and contemporary British artists whose practice centres on hand-pulled screen printing\, layered processes\, and expressive hand-painted mark-making to create emotionally charged works rooted in nostalgia\, childhood imagery\, and pop culture. Over a short period of time\, they have built a dedicated international following\, and their work has been sold at Bonhams\, is held in significant private collections\, and has led to collaborations with brands including Bang & Olufsen\, LØCI\, and Gresham Blake. \nOpen to the Public: Friday 27th & Saturday 28th February\, 10:00 am – 7:00 pm (both days) \nLocation: Protein Studios\, 31 New Inn Yard\, London EC2A 3EY \n

SUMMARY:Violet Hour x Distorted Frame present Surveillance Seance: Paranormal Activity + short film
DESCRIPTION:Violet Hour x Distorted Frame present \nSurveillance Séance: Paranormal Activity + My House Walk-Through (short film) \nParanormal Activity \n2007\, 86 min \nParanormal Activity places the haunted house at the centre of an act of self-surveillance. When Katie reveals to her boyfriend Micah that she has been haunted by an evil presence since childhood\, Micah employs an array of digital devices to try and record any strange events that might happen around their home. But when doors start slamming on their own\, a Ouija board spontaneously combusts and Katie appears to become possessed (caught in chilling time lapse)\, the couple may have got more than they bargained for. The capturing of these events gives the film a documentary feel\, but one wonders if the ghost is not just on screen but also in the machine. Oren Peli’s low budget chiller conducts a séance for the YouTube generation\, a conjuring of spirits in high definition\, offering proof that our collective fear of the unknown\, despite our technological progress\, is even more potent than ever. \nDirector: Oren Peli \nLanguage: English \n  \nThe film will be accompanied by: \nMy House Walk-Through \n2016\, 12 min \nDirected by visual artist and filmmaker PiroPito\, this atmospheric short film claims to be “not a horror video” but instead a simple visual tour of their own home. But what quickly emerges is an increasingly disturbing parade of grotesque images presented as a single\, unbroken take. As the camera tracks through an impossibly unending hallway\, this repetition of phantasmagorias builds to a haunting and ultimately tragic conclusion. A chilling example of “creepypasta” (scary stories presented online as real-life happenings)\, My House Walk-Through is an astonishing work of low-budget digital horror and a perfect companion piece to Paranormal Activity. \nDirector: PiroPito \nLanguage: Japanese (with English subtitles)

SUMMARY:Read-Only Memory\, Pop-Up Video Installation by Lina A.
DESCRIPTION:Site-specific pop-up video installation by multidisciplinary artist Lina A.\n\nRead-Only Memory is Lina A.’s newest inquiry into the vulnerability and persistence of both personal and collective memories\, building upon the concepts of her 2024 solo show\, RAM. This immersive\, multi-channel video installation presents the viewer with a dizzying\, anarchic flow of fragmented imagery—lost\, found\, recovered\, personal\, and impersonal. Images bleed and writhe through stacked projections\, and an erratic soundscape enhances the feeling of disorientation and familiarity at the same time. The randomization of sequence interferes with linear narrative\, recalling the instability of memory and how memory decays\, overlaps\, and reforms. In Read-Only Memory\, Lina A. further explores the tension between preservation and loss\, the question of what remains archived and what is permanently lost to digital decay.

SUMMARY:Artist Talk with Markéta Slaná
DESCRIPTION:Markéta Slaná is a multidisciplinary artist whose work explores digital landscape and the compulsion to consume excessive amounts of negative digital content. She investigates the psychology of dissociation\, alienation\, and post-ironic detachment through the practice based in installation and performance. Her work embraces mundanity and absurdity laden in the tension of living in a hyperconnected yet disconnected world. \n\nMarkéta will discuss the key elements of her work\, show genealogy of her practice and delve into her latest explorations around topics of delusion\, dissociation and distraction. \nArtist talk will be accompanied by a reading of a performance script and Q&A with curator Erin Li. \nErin Li is Curator at Delfina Foundation\, leading on the delivery of residencies\, exhibitions\, and public programmes. Her recent curatorial practice centres around liveness\, from street dance and live art\, live culture in fermentation\, to transforming everyday relations\, processes and vulnerabilities into interdisciplinary art projects. She was previously Asymmetry Curatorial Fellow at Whitechapel Gallery in London\, and Associate Curator at Tai Kwun Contemporary in Hong Kong. \n\nFree Entry: \nhttps://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/arist-talk-with-marketa-slana-tickets-1101004346639?aff=oddtdtcreator
