SUMMARY:Live Concert - Alex Stolze + Ben Osborn
DESCRIPTION:Live Concert – Alex Stolze + Ben Osborn\n \nNonostar label mates play an intimate concert at St. Margaret’s House\, Bethnal Green. Only UK date of the European tour.\nAbout this event\nAlex Stolze \nPerforming with his unique\, custom-made five-string electro-acoustic violin\, Alex is a pioneering figure in his field of modern classical/post-pop explorations. Shifting seamlessly between stark modern classical works\, fiercely intelligent electronica and off-kilter indie pop\, Stolze manages to craft his own consistent sound throughout. \nBen Osborn \nChannelling Leonard Cohen-Esque balladry\, Ben also draws from electronica\, folk and 20th-century art music. Ethereal string sections rise and fade\, Björk-like beats skitter\, Erik Satie piano chords drift into view. In less capable hands\, it might sound miscellaneous\, but he weaves his disparate influences into textural tapestries that sound like nobody but him. \nThird Act TBC

SUMMARY:Mind The ‘Green Gap’: Houseplant Hideout Opens In East London To Combat Nature Deficit
DESCRIPTION:Thejoyofplants.co.uk today announces the opening of a ‘Houseplant Hideout’ in East London’s urban jungle\, Shoreditch’s BoxPark. Designed to banish autumn blues for the 48% of Brits who say they are dreading winter this year and to help bring nature into homes and home office spaces these cold seasons\, the Houseplant Hideout is ultimately designed to transport consumers to a biophilic wonderland of Zen. \nWith half (52%) confessing that nature is the top thing they’ve missed during the lockdown in recent research commissioned by Thejoyofplants.co.uk\, the houseplant experts have set about bringing a rich\, rejuvenating biophilic dreamworld to the heart of the concrete jungle. By placing over 300 houseplants into a handcrafted 10m installation\, with rotating chairs\, soft lighting and a mindfulness audio meditation crafted by plant spirit expert Holly Worton\, the Houseplant Hideout is set to transport visitors to another world. \nOpen to the public from the 7th of October at 10 am\, ‘Houseplant Hideout’ invites individuals to get lost – Alice in Wonderland style – in a lush green forest bathing immersion where the magical power of houseplants stimulates every sense. Upon stepping inside this tranquil oasis\, visitors will be transported into an interactive biophilic wonderland complete with a six-metre vertical kaleidoscope to be fully engulfed in nature and give them a magical moment for the gram. With terrariums portals to peek through from the outside to a lush moss flooring\, this event is designed to show how easy it is to bring the natural landscape into the interior landscape – just in time for winter. \nThejoyofplants.co.uk has collaborated with award-winning designer and architect DaeWha Kang to create the hideout – a monolithic landmark bringing biophilic principles to life with a unique space for people to retreat\, reflect and recharge – as part of their successful Thanks Plants campaign. With the safe space of our homes overtaken by work and more than ever\, we need quietude\, shelter\, and moments of beauty and tranquillity brought back into our home working spaces to avoid a nature deficit. \nRenowned botanist James Wong has carefully curated the houseplants inside\, selecting varieties for their wellbeing and biophilic benefits\, such as Strelitzia Nicolai’s that help take in CO2 and harmful toxins and release oxygen to plants and terrariums that help boost concentration whilst working from our home offices. \nPlant spirit expert Holly Worton has crafted a special plant meditation visitors can try out during their time in the installation and also listen at home to relax\, or on their lunch break via a link supplied on their visit. Talking to plants has long been proven to help them grow\, but Holly takes this one step further. Creating a meditation that reinforces our connection to plants by assisting consumers to get into a relaxed state helps us reach states of consciousness that allow for communication beyond humans. \nOpen to the public for free from 7th October to 9th October 2021 located at The Green in BOXPARK Shoreditch. Consumers will be allowed to book an individual session lasting 10 or 15 minutes here. The hideout is also designed with passers-by and houseplant enthusiasts in mind who can still enjoy the installation by peeking through the numerous portals and spotting our hand-made terrariums by James Wong\, discover magical houseplant scenes and capture inspiration and photography of this shrine to the wonder of houseplants.

SUMMARY:Live Concert - GAD WHIP + THE PHONE CALL + SEAN SMITH (DJ)
DESCRIPTION:Live Concert – Upset The Rhythm present GAD WHIP\, THE PHONE CALL\, SEAN SMITH (DJ) \n \nUpset The Rhythm presents… \nGAD WHIP was formed in 2014 and blended avant-garde sensibilities with a contemporary take on where DIY culture meets post-punk. Hints of deconstructed garage rock and interstellar voyaging through sweat-drenched waking dreams. Immediate\, powerful\, confounding and kept in place by wry\, sometimes observational\, semi-spoken vocals. This is music primed\, perfect for any 21st-century meltdown in suburban sprawl. Various labels have released their music\, from NYC’s Ever/Never Records\, Germany’s X-Mist Records\, Canada’s Arachnidiscs Recordings\, and UK/Poland based Fourth Dimension Records.\nhttps://gadwhip.bandcamp.com \nTHE PHONE CALL features rogue members of David Cronenberg’s Wife and Gloaming Knave. Clicky riffs\, synth pizzazz\, frothy shuffles of beat\, and some superior observant commentary abound\, arcane and every day in equal measure. The Phone Call was formed in 2019 as a strange brew of Fine Young Cannibals\, The Fall and The Bhundu Boys.\n \nSEAN SMITH (DJ set)\nhttps://soundcloud.com/undeleted/punkrockdisco-witch-hunt…\nhttps://undeleted.wordpress.com/ \nGAD WHIP\nTHE PHONE CALL\nSEAN SMITH (DJ)\nFriday 15 October\nPinUps\, 1 Tolpuddle Street\, Angel\, London\, N1 0XT\n7.30pm | £7.00 | https://link.dice.fm/zoP2qXE2Agb

SUMMARY:Dor Beetles Slumbering at Dusk - Art Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Private View: Saturday 16th of October from 12-6 pm \nLondon (Wandsworth) \nTall stems of flowers\, grass and reeds tower against the sky as soft sunlight streams through their leaves. Norwegian artist Vibeke Slyngstad’s exquisitely rendered paintings take the perspective of a small child playing in the earth\, running through fields\, wading through streams\, squinting into the sun. However\, these are not works of nostalgia; the beauty Slyngstad depicts is fragile and wavering just as the landscapes themselves are transitional\, caught between the rural and the urban\, the land and the sea. Instead\, Dor Beetles Slumbering at Dusk\, the artist’s solo exhibition at Kristin Hjellegjerde Gallery London\, takes these rugged\, mysterious edgelands as a way of exploring complex psychological states. \nSlyngstad works at a slow\, meditative pace\, precisely rendering each image using a single layer of paint so that the finished surface has a delicate\, almost translucent quality\, reflecting more expansive notions of liminality. Although the compositions are inspired by the artist’s photographs of real-life encounters with nature\, the vivid hues and magnified perspective of the plants against a blank\, white sky suggest a heightened view or dreamlike state rather than any specific geographical location. Meanwhile\, Slyngstad’s plays with materiality to evoke a fluctuating sense of perception\, almost as if we are dipping in and out of consciousness. From a distance\, the exacting details\, blinding bursts of light and contrast between sharpened and blurred edges\, which mimic the flash and zoom of a camera\, create a stunning impression of photorealism. Still\, on closer inspection\, the artist’s presence becomes visible through delicate\, irregular brushstrokes and subtle imperfections where the colours bleed out of the lines or the paint streaks. “It is essential to me that the works have a humanity and honesty about them\,” says the artist. “The viewer can see every mark.” \nAt the same time\, the visible fragility of the work creates a slight air of tension or perhaps\, even anxiety. This is probably most keenly felt in the series of paintings entitled Shuafat\, named after a predominantly Palestinian neighbourhood in East Jerusalem. The artist encountered a sizeable vacant area of urban land\, overgrown with flowers and weeds breaking through the cracks in the concrete. Slyngstad was struck by the beauty and persistence of nature against a backdrop of conflict and hardship and continues to return the same imagery\, playing with the crop and scale to create fresh interpretations. In this exhibition\, the landscape is depicted at a large scale\, taking on an almost hyperrealism that heightens both a sense of drama and vitality. Meanwhile\, the artist deliberately chooses to work in a bright colour palette to convey a feeling of optimism that relates to notions of renewal and rebirth as enacted by the natural life cycle. Each painting offers a window into a microcosmic world that captures the harmonious relationship between deterioration (the drooping white petals of the daisies) and growth (the lush green foliage)\, whilst the works’ materiality the intensity of detail creates an odd\, pervading sense of unease. \nThese ideas are further explored in the series Sønstegård\, named after an area of protected wetlands in Norway close to Oslo\, where the artist is based. These paintings depict a sparser landscape of reeds and grass growing on the banks of a body of water. Rendered in dark tones of purple\, pink and red\, they evoke the cusp of nightfall\, once again playing with notions of transition and perhaps\, reflecting the experience of memory as a wavering psychological place that’s continually in the process of fading. Like the landscape of Shuafat\, we find ourselves simultaneously drawn in by the beauty and held at a taut distance. \nThe exhibition’s title reflects this layered perceptual experience by evoking the poetic image of a beetle slumbering in the undergrowth\, caught between a state of sleep and wakefulness as the day transitions into the night. Although the beetle is not depicted in any of the paintings\, we can perhaps read it as a metaphor for ourselves\, the viewers\, drawn deep into Slyngstad’s vivid\, intricate worlds.

SUMMARY:Relationship workshops with  Family  Constellations – “Chance for Love”
DESCRIPTION:Relationship Workshops\nMeeting for a Season\, Reason or Life Systemic Constellations with Alex Piotrowska\nA workshop about relationships and everything that happens in them.\nPersonal relationships are one of the most important areas of our lives. This is a workshop about trust\, alignment\, rejection\, abandonment\, betrayal\, family conscience. It is a workshop about men and women\, about lovers\, disrespected partners\, about love\, and about what love is not.\nIt is a workshop about us. About me\, about you and them… about all those who want to resolve the ties that bind us so that you can finally go your way in relationships\nRelationships are a broad and deep subject.\nI invite you to this workshop to explore your past\, present and future potential relationships. \nSet up your own constellation as a Client\n• State your issue briefly and answer a few factual questions.\n• Choose others from the group to represent your family\, watch as the facilitator gently guides the unfolding process to reveal hidden dynamics.\n• Clear confusion\, hurt and blame to resolve the issue at hand. Maintain certain privacy as only snippets of your family are revealed.\n• Allow the full impact of the experience to absorb and develop over time.\nBe a representative. \n• Experience the insight and compassion of someone else’s experience.\n• Learn through the similarities to your own personal situation.\n• See how Constellations work before deciding to do your own process.\nWHERE: PUTNEY LIBRARY\, High Street\, Putney\, London SW15 1SN\nGet to Putney Bridge Station by tube and then 5 minutes walk across the bridge.\nWHERE\, 30.10. 2021 we start 9.30 am\, until 6 pm\nCOST: £160 for a person working with their question\, £ 120 for a representative participant\nBOOKINGS http://www.familyconstellation.net/bookings.html\nContact: psychologuk@gmail.com\nWHATSAPP phone: 0795 7586656 \nSome questions you might ask yourself\n… why I’m in a relationship\, want to leave even though everything is going well\, or live in unfulfillment.\nWhy don’t I succeed even though I love\, why do I love only unattainable partners\, why do I carry so much anger inside even though He is good and She is trying? This will be a workshop about the ways of love through the patterns that function in your family. It will be a workshop where you meet and draw out the pathways of the heart\, the men and women of the family tree\, to heal what has perhaps been waiting to be seen and felt for a long time.\nThis will be a workshop about what pattern of relationship you have created as a child\, but perhaps it is no longer useful to adult life.\nPerhaps you do not see and have no place in your heart for all the actors that this pattern has played out in the past of your lineage? Are you angry at mistresses\, at women who take men? Where in the lineage is the mistress that no one sees? Are you furious about insincerity in a relationship? Where in the lineage relationship did insincerity lead to life? Who was insincere in feelings with whom? Are you unable to stand your ground in a relationship? Do you associate a relationship with something hard ? Something where you cannot grow? Where can’t you feel the love? Do you want a new partner? Is that a way out? Do you feel that you can’t move past betrayal in a relationship? Who has been betrayed and not allowed themselves to live through it to the end? Who do you carry this for\, and who are you so close to in your soul? Are you constantly being abandoned by your partners? Which woman or man has not experienced abandonment in favour of someone else? Or maybe you are still afraid to show yourself in a relationship\, and you play someone others accept\, but you still feel that it is just a mask and not the real you? The answers are within you\, in the field of your lineage.\nYou can only choose a role model when you see what you have come to choose. So this will be a workshop about where your heart is and whether you can definitely carry it in your body.\nThis workshop will be about the imbalance of feelings in a couple that causes our relationship to become a pressure cooker.\nIt will be a workshop about how love succeeds and how to love with the head\, that is\, according to the orders of love. And how to love in the body\, and not just in a mental or spiritual space.\nThis will be a workshop about life and happiness in relationships because\, as research shows\, happiness is our relationship. It is not the number of our relationships but their quality and depth.\nWithout a doubt\, this will also be a workshop about your mum and your dad\, because they are the ones who started it all\, and without naming what happens in this relationship\, it is impossible to walk on your own two feet into adulthood and leave the family home.\nDuring the workshop\, you will have the opportunity to connect deeper to your own questions and issues\, do your personal work and participate as a representative in others’ constellations. \nYour Facilitator Alex Piotrowska psychotherapist trainer\, coach. She is an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Therapy. Alex runs a private psychotherapy practice in London where she deals with relationship difficulties and couples coaching.

SUMMARY:The Way Through The Forest  |  Punam Singh | 2nd – 13th November 2021
DESCRIPTION:Punam is inspired by the ever-changing and evolving nature of gardens and forests. Her abstract artwork is influenced by the landscapes\, forests and grasslands of Assam and England. In her first solo exhibition\, Punam’s abstract paintings explore the spiritual qualities of woods\, inspired by the power of nature and trees to create mindfulness and reduce stress.  \nThe artist spent much of her early life immersed in the forest environment. The cycles of transformation\, growth and her memories of the wilderness are reflected in the textures of her work.  \nFor her\, forests are a place of mystery and discovery\, representing resilience\, transition and change.  \nThese qualities\, rediscovered during lockdown walks through London’s ancient woodland\, have been a source of strength\, healing and inspiration during the pandemic.  \nThis exhibition shares some of the work created during this period\, emanating the meditative emotions often felt when dwelling amidst the trees.  \nPunam works using acrylics\, pigments and gouache. She uses canvases as well as wood\, bamboo and casement cloth to paint on. The layers and textures in her paintings are influenced by what she saw in the forests as a child. She uses concrete and plaster to create these effects. Her work is colourful\, reflecting the vibrancy of nature and life. \nThe Artist \nPunam was born in a tea garden in Assam\, India\, and grew up in the foothills of the Himalayas. She has lived in London since 2000.  \nPunam gained a Post Graduate Diploma in Social Communications Media from the University of Bombay\, Sophia College. She worked for many years in the 1990s as an advertising film director. Punam is a self-taught artist\, and in recent years\, she has used her artistic practice to re-engage with her creative past. \nThis exhibition is dedicated to the memory of her beloved son Jai. A percentage of the proceeds from the show will go to Great Ormond Street Hospital.

SUMMARY:Access + Ability in the Arts\, Design & Technology- Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Access for all in the arts\nWith Japan hosting the Paralympic Games this year\, the world’s attention has been on disability. This exhibition highlights the people\, programmes and products that change how we think about access for all in the arts and everyday life. \nThe exhibition features British arts organisations Extant\, Graeae Theatre Company and Intoart and their recent interactions with Japan and collaborations with Japanese artists. \nCeramicist IWAMOTO Ikuko and architect YAMANAKA Akira\, both based in the UK\, show the importance of incorporating a broad-minded approach to design by explaining how their work has become more inclusive. \nIn a unique project with the Japanese Gallery Kensington to show the possibilities of reformatted art\, UCL Mechanical Engineering has transformed a woodblock print by artist KANEKO Kunio into 3D art. Visitors to the exhibition will also see how craftsman MIYABO Katsuyuki and inventor MIYAKE Seiichi have helped to improve the lives of disabled people.

She is a figurative painter focusing on contemporary beauty concepts popularised and polarised amongst women and influencers. Her inspirations are strongly connected with the fashion world\, a field she was very familiar with as she worked in the industry before studying art. She graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw with a BA in Fashion Design and at the Wimbledon College of Arts with an MA in Painting. More recently\, she completed the Turps Banana Painting off-site programme in London. Her works have been exhibited in exhibitions in the UK\, Poland\, Hungary\, Sweden and Germany. \nFlora Borsi \nFlora Borsi is a young fine art photographer from Hungary. She uses exquisite photo manipulation to create surreal images that are thematically focused on identity\, relationships\, emotions and dreams. Her flawless technique and subtle conceptual ideas create beautiful evocations of universal emotions\, from lust and desire to despair and loss. Borsi at once captures the complex strength and fragility of the human psyche. She expertly visualises dark fantasies and atmospheric dreams\, utilising the uncanny and clever metaphor\, while unlocking what it means to think\, feel\, dream and express in the urban world. Her work often features the female body. She plays with hiding and revealing the eyes or face to leave only the feminine form\, exploring questions of female representation and the relationship between body and self. Borsi has exhibited internationally with solo exhibitions in Europe and the USA and has most notably taken part in the Continental Shift group exhibition at Saatchi Gallery. She has also exhibited at the Louvre\, France. \nMarcus Jake \nMarcus Jake is a full-time abstract and mixed-media artist born in the UK. He is currently making his home in Victoria\, BC\, Canada. Jake was educated in Bristol\, UK\, where he studied and received his BA (Hons) Degree in Fine Art and Certificate in Higher Education in Photography. \nWhat initially appear to be two very separate and distinct bodies of work (abstract painting and mixed-media photography) are\, in fact profoundly connected and interlinked\, both inspiring people to connect with that part of themselves that makes them feel truly alive and magnetically present. It is an art that celebrates bravery and courage\, the path we walk to get to where we are\, portraying our beautiful individuality\, deep connected humanity and energetic bond to life. Immeasurably entwined into the narrative are our human connection\, our connection to all other life and our expansive connection to the planet we live on. \nJake has exhibited internationally\, including in London\, Brighton\, Bristol\, Glasgow\, Barcelona\, Rome\, Paris\, Vancouver\, BC\, Victoria\, BC\, and several awards. \nKate Viner \nSculptor Kate Viner has been commissioned to create several large public artworks. Anthony Caro’s heavy metal constructionism was the backdrop of Viner’s 80’s art school experience at Winchester. As a result\, she spent years honing her skills in welding and forging steel. \nHowever\, her formal art education started much earlier. Aged 15\, she began training under Patricia Austin to sculpt the figure directly from life in clay. Consequently\, she is comfortable in various materials and techniques and works both abstractly and figuratively. \nUnderlying themes that motivate Viner’s work are the delicate balances between conflict\, religion\, sexuality\, respect and sacrifice. Her practice explores human evolution. She is interested in shifting attitudes towards female sexuality and the paradox of femininity. Her nudes are intimate yet not voyeuristic or sexualised. Her work often returns to the themes of religion\, women\, war and their relationships. The material and technique she selects are dictated by the subject matter the artwork demands. \nWorking collaboratively with teams and Outreach projects within communities is an integral part of the process that she relishes\, as her interest in the human narrative has always been her driving force. \nTeresa Wells \nBritish artist Teresa Wells creates figurative bronze sculptures that celebrate the dynamism\, resilience and emotive capacity of the human body. Whether portraying figures in movement\, dancing nudes or contemplative portraits\, Wells has a knack for capturing a human likeness in her art. Some of Wells’ sculptures are life-size\, whilst others are made smaller or bigger\, reflecting either the intimacy or impact of each piece. Wells’ art is inspired by how humans behave\, with a particular focus on the endurance and strength of the human body. \nBronze is integral to Wells’ practice\, not only because of its smooth and refined surface texture but predominantly because of its extremely high tensile strength. The durability and flexibility of bronze allow Wells to experiment with composition and arrangement\, resulting in dynamic poses and energetic subjects. Wells uses the lost wax process to create her sculptures\, and she often places her sculptures high up on plinths to enhance the Sense of movement. \nSam Haynes \nSam Haynes is a mid-career visual artist based in London\, interested in physicality and materiality of forms\, creating abstract assemblages and installations\, strongly influenced by her inclusive engagement practice. \nAs an artist that initially felt isolated and uncomfortably distanced from everyday life working within a studio\, Haynes started her practice over twenty-five years ago\, creating site-specific public art installations\, engaging local communities with the belief that art has the power to bridge divides within society. Her creative process is still all about making connections\, both as an artist facilitator and a collaborator and sculptor. Accessibility lies at the heart of her work\, incorporating found objects and materials\, using low-tech methods of construction to create abstract assemblages that reference domestic and architectural space. \nThese recent mixed media works\, developed since lockdown 2020\, combine a rhythmical\, systematic design and geometric structure with softer\, flexible elements that shape more organically. Haynes is led primarily by an intuitive response to these contrasting or opposing materials\, leading to often unexpected outcomes. These playful interactions\, surprising and yet familiar\, seek to create a sense of balance and tension\, building dynamic connections between materials and the surrounding space\, animated through the use of colour\, light\, and shadow. This recent work is presented in photographic form\, printed directly onto aluminium\, giving the lightest areas a shine as you move across the image. \nHaynes has worked in arts facilitation for many years\, engaging marginalised communities and working with disability and mental health charities. Her public sculptural installations include commissions for Amnesty International\, Public Art Wales\, and the deaf-blind charity\, Sense. As well as leading Arts Council funded projects she has exhibited interactive sculpture at the Hannah Peschar Sculpture Garden and collaborative\, site-specific artwork at the Southbank’s Royal Festival Hall. \nIan Brennan \nHaving spent almost two decades in the corporate world\, Ian Brennan decided to follow his lifelong dream of becoming an artist. In 2019 Brennan chose to devote his attention to painting full time. Having worked with interior designers and architects\, his paintings have found homes from LA to several restaurants and homes in London. Brennan trained as a psychotherapist in his late twenties and brought the depth of the inward journey into his artwork. Brennan’s abstract landscapes are often his response to the elements and nature. His close observation combines with intriguing surface texture and carefully balanced composition to create a unique representation of his internal landscape. Brennan’s paintings have an open-ended narrative that allows the viewer to be suspended in a dreamlike reality. No defined answers are offered\, only the encouragement to enter a world within the piece and explore it with your sensibility. Brennan is becoming one of Europe’s most exciting emerging artists. His work is highly sought after. Brennan recently won an award at this year’s London Art Biennale. \nPedro Sousa Louro \nA textural tangibility is immediately evident in Pedro Sousa Louro’s work. Earthy and material-focused\, a natural beauty is found within the play between dark woods and a muddied palette. Furthermore\, geometry plays a crucial role here\, as clean white lines converse with muted colour blocks. There is an almost archival\, collage-like approach to applying materials and hues\, and it is as if Sousa Louro has assumed the role of archaeologist\, unearthing layers of forgotten history. Educated at Chelsea College of Arts\, Sousa Louro is one of the most talked-about LGBTQ artists at the moment.

SUMMARY:BUFFET LUNCH + ME LOST ME + SHAKE CHAIN - Live Concert in London at Cafe Oto
DESCRIPTION:Upset The Rhythm presents… \nBUFFET LUNCH\nME LOST ME\nSHAKE CHAIN\nSaturday 6 November\nCafe OTO\, 18-22 Ashwin St\, London\, E8 3DL\n7.30pm | £7 | https://link.dice.fm/v9oNFWFE7hb \nBUFFET LUNCH is a Scottish group whose mission is to craft satisfyingly imperfect pop songs filled with imagery and humour. The group’s elementary parts are Perry O’Bray (Vocals/Keys/Guitar)\, Neil Robinson (Bass)\, John Muir (Lead Guitar) & Luke Moran (Drums)\, united by a shared love of music on the ABBA-to-Beefheart axis. This four ricochet between Glasgow and Edinburgh create music that bristles with a DIY spirit and upbeat wonkiness. Their tracks are active excursions\, meandering into clatter some terrain as often as hiking up into the breezy\, melodious foothills. The desire to lead the listener along a curious tale helps tie things together\, showcasing a lyrical playfulness that pins down their sound puzzle. Following their excellent ‘The Power of Rocks’ album (Upset The Rhythm)\, the band returns this November with a vigorous new 7″ EP featuring the tracks’ Mild Weather’ and ‘Cheeks’.\nhttps://buffetlunchband.tumblr.com/ \nME LOST ME is the electronic music project of Newcastle based musician Jayne Dent.

Her live shows are atmospheric\, dark and playful\, with a repertoire that explores storytelling through original songs\, improvisations and reworkings of traditional ballads. She recently released her second album\, ‘The Good Noise’\, out November 2020\, which was described as ‘stunning’ and ‘remarkable’ by NARC Magazine\, demonstrates a maturing of her sound and a deepening of her exploration of site and experiments with the genre.\nhttps://www.melostme.com/ \nSHAKE CHAIN is a 4-piece experimental group formed of Artists Kate Mahony (Vocals)\, Jenna Finch (Drums)\, Robert Eyres (Guitar/Synth) and Chris Hopkins (Bass Synth) hailing from Goldsmiths College\, Nottingham Trent and Wimbledon\, University of the Arts.

DESCRIPTION:Concert in London – “Lessons for Lyra Viol” – Liam Byrne (viola de gamba)\nAt around the same time\, John Dowland was writing his famously beautiful music for solo lute. His contemporary Alfonso Ferrabosco the Younger composed a collection of equally gorgeous\, subtle\, and elegant pieces for solo viola. Heard all too rarely today\, the repertoire is highly complex\, chordal and contrapuntal\, with Ferrabosco asking the player to tune his instrument in various non-standard ways to achieve unique resonances. As a result\, we often describe the viol as a bowed lute\, particularly in this writing style\, called playing lyra way or playing the lyra viol\, where this close relationship between the lute and viol is most apparent. \n \nThe Lyra viol’s bow is light and flexible\, and it does something halfway between plucking and singing\, like filling in the ink drawing of lute playing with strokes of delicate watercolour. In this program\, Liam Byrne intersperses selections from Ferrabosco’s 1609 collection of lyra viol lessons with some anonymous gems from unpublished manuscript sources\, as well as works by William Lawes\, Daniel Farrant\, and others. \n \nThe lyra viol is the ultimate unaccompanied repertoire for the viol. Introspective\, intimate\, and delicate\, it flourished in Britain throughout the 17th century. One of its more well-known proponents was the diarist Samuel Pepys\, who often writes of playing alone on his lyra viol before bed.

SUMMARY:David Gaberle: Looking for Prague
DESCRIPTION:Private view & artist talk: 16 November 2021\, 6 pm \nAn outdoor exhibition of the work of Czech street photographer and worldwide ambassador for FUJIFILM David Gaberle captures everyday Prague’s streets. Following his critically applauded Metropolight project in which he explored world cities from London to Tokyo\, Gaberle turned his camera on his native city of Prague. After covering more than 2000 km of streets and six months in making the result is a subjective\, almost intimate documentation of Prague offering an untraditional view of places away from the hustle and bustle of tourists. \nComprehensive artist statement by David Gaberle for his photographic exhibition:\n“Taking photographs while travelling is often an easy endeavour because everything seems new and exciting. However\, the novelty is seductive\, and we tend to exoticise what we see and perceive. As a result\, the photographs tend to say more about us as visitors than about the places we are trying to portray.\nWhen I returned to live in Prague\, I focused my camera on the cityscape outside of the city’s historical centre. I walked many of the same streets repeatedly in the hope that I would learn to find the seemingly mundane and ordinary to be interesting. After a few months\, I stopped wishing for extraordinary moments to happen in front of my lens\, and I started to notice the textures\, the subtle tones of colours and the rhythm of objects in the camera’s frame. I slowly began to see the city as a collage of shapes and colours. It felt like progress\, yet I still cannot shake off the feeling that I am not looking at Prague entirely my way.\nOften\, I think that everything the camera and the eye perceive is simply a reflection of light that bounces off the surface. The implication seems to be that we never really see things for what they are. Sometimes I feel like I can sense what that suggests\, but the consequences seem so harrowing that I have not yet found the courage to explore what it means.” \nDAVID GABERLE\n“David Gaberle underlines with light exactly that spot within the composition that he wants to draw attention to\, or lights up the colour that is the essence of the whole image. David presses the shutter often at the moment when the sun’s rays light the small area of the street or touch the façade of a house at the last moment. It is as if he takes pleasure from this nervy borderline moment when the well-lit streets turn just for an instant into a stage.” Tomáš Pospěch\, Curator \nPart of 25th Made in Prague Festival (7 November – 7 December 2021) \nFree\, registration on https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/david-gaberle-looking-for-prague-private-view-artist-talk-tickets-196392554417?aff=odeimcmailchimp&mc_cid=b90125e016&mc_eid=970f7c2a4f

SUMMARY:Behind Closed Doors - Showcasing the work of writers of underrepresented genders
DESCRIPTION:Behind Closed Doors is an online scratch night showcasing the work of writers of underrepresented genders\, who are exploring themes of sex\, bodies and intimacy in their work.\nFeaturing rehearsed readings of four short plays\, this night will be asking how meaningful conversations around sex have opened up – are we more liberated? Or just finding new ways to take issues with our bodies? And how has the pandemic changed the way we date? \nA lot of people also still aren’t being invited to take part in this conversation around sex and bodies\, and the plays included in Behind Closed Doors will mainly look at how sex interacts with other areas of identity\, including how sex and non-Western cultures co-exist\, and how sex is discussed in non-heteronormative relationships. \nFilmed at Theatre Deli\, the night will be streamed straight to your living room as part of Theatre Deli’s LiveFromDeli programme. So you can join us online at 7:30 pm on 16 November for the launch night of Behind Closed Doors\, and the plays will be available to watch on-demand until 7 December. Tickets are Pay-What-You-Can. \nUnderrepresented genders include cis women\, trans women\, trans men\, non-binary people\, and those who are otherwise marginalised. \nThis night is staged by Lemon House Theatre\, a vibrant work that connects artists and audiences. They have previously orchestrated a double bill of shows at Bunker Theatre\, a scratch night at St. Margaret’s House\, and produced the audio series Lemon Lounge during the 2020 pandemic.

SUMMARY:We Gather – Craft Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:We Gather – Craft Exhibition featuring five female makers of Black and Asian Heritage\nNew Crafts Council exhibition We Gather features five female makers of Black and Asian heritage whose work shares a commitment to craft and its cultural value\, 17 November 2021 – 5 February 2022 \nWe Gather exhibition opens at the Crafts Council Gallery on 17 November and features five female Black and Asian heritage artists. Whilst their chosen materials and disciplines vary\, their work shares a commitment to craft and its cultural value. The makers are Shaheen Ahmed\, Lorna Hamilton-Brown\, Omeima Mudawi-Rowlings\, Francisca Onumah and Onome Otite. \nThe title We Gather refers to the gathering of ideas\, skills and emotions embedded within these five craft practices and the meeting of perspectives that have been underrepresented in the industry. It is also a symbol of gratitude towards the communities who gathered their courage\, bodies\, and voices to support justice for Black lives\, which instigated deeper conversations between the UK’s Black makers and the Crafts Council. \n“This exhibition has offered us a unique opportunity to curate in honour of women who share similar experiences and frames of reference to our own\, but also within a mainstream cultural organisation that we haven’t traditionally seen ourselves reflected in. We are excited to bring together their collection of works\, which offer audiences fresh visibility to crafts that has emotional depth\, space and social resonance.” Curators of We Gather\, Rosie Ross & Griffi. \nThe We Gather exhibition came out of Craft Expertise\, the AHRC-funded UKRI/RCUK Innovation Fellowship led by Dr Karen Patel of Birmingham City University\, collaborating with Crafts Council. The research aimed to raise awareness of inequalities in the current craft economy in the UK and highlight the various challenges women of colour face in the sector. \nCommissioned by Dr Karen Patel as part of her research\, each artist in the exhibition will present new and existing work. \nBirmingham-based artist Shaheen Ahmed uses maps to reflect narratives of statelessness and disparagement. Her work is layered with a multitude of craft processes and motifs\, including calligraphy and Islamic geometry. She wore a blindfold while making them connect with the emotions and experiences of oppressed societies. \nEast Sussex-based artist Lorna Hamilton-Brown\, known for her provocative textile works that challenge preconceptions of knitting and crochet\, has created a knitted magazine cover – ‘We Mek Magazine’- full of symbolism with a central figure inspired by political activist Angela Davis and with her watch set to 9.25\, the time that George Floyd lost his life to police brutality. \nBritish-Sudanese textile artist Omeima Mudawi-Rowlings will present a new light installation. The work incorporates dyeing\, screen-printing\, and Devoré techniques to explore themes of identity\, communication\, heritage\, and womanhood. The artist is influenced by her Sudanese heritage\, which is reflected in her use of Arabic geometry\, colour\, and form. \nGhanaian-born silversmith Francisca Onumah has created three emotive and figurative vessels in her new work ‘In our sKin’ (2021) that reflect family\, relationships and historical images of Ghanaian people in everyday life. Their abstracted patterns are deconstructed from traditional Ghanaian motifs\, fabrics\, and crafted objects. Instead\, marks and textures are repeatedly hammered into sheet metal to mirror and resemble the patterns found in textiles and fabrics. \nLondon-based artist Onome Otite has created a new textile work inspired by the support network between women\, the group of figures in her piece are based on close friends of hers that have inspired her. She has also intentionally chosen five figures to mirror the relevance of the five women taking part in the We Gather exhibition. She has hand-stitched loose-folded fabrics across her hand-drawn statistics\, which each of her subjects has donated. \nAt the centre of the exhibition is a gathering space. Material from the commissioning artists will be displayed alongside other pioneering female makers whose work celebrates craft within everyday contexts. Among these will be works by artists Jasleen Kaur and Magdalene Odundo DBE from the Crafts Council Collection. We Gather is a site for learning and reflection\, with books\, reports and images encouraging visitors to discuss visibility\, cultural traditions\, and the value of women’s contribution to craft within everyday contexts. \nThe exhibition also features a selection of objects and portraits of female artisans from The Black Artisans\, a photographic project by Jo Sealy that celebrates Black artisans in traditional sectors of UK heritage crafts and gives visibility to doing practices derived from African and Caribbean cultural heritage\, including steel pan making and calabash art. \nThe exhibition graphic design is by Rose Nordin\, co-founder of OOMK (One of My Kind).
