SUMMARY:Queen Nanny: Legendary Maroon Chieftainess screening + Q&A
DESCRIPTION:We’re partnering with The New Black Film Collective for a screening at the Museum of London Docklands that unearths the story of Jamaica’s only female National Hero.\n\n\n\n\n\nThe documentary Queen Nanny: Legendary Maroon Chieftainess – by award-winning Jamaican-born American filmmaker Roy T. Anderson and Dr Harecourt Fuller – explores one of the most revered heroines in the history of the ‘New World’: Nanny of the Maroons. Her victory is celebrated in the present with her image appearing on the Jamaican $500 note and a posthumous award of Order of National Hero. Her resistance is an inspirational example of the many ways in which women have undermined slavery throughout history.

DESCRIPTION:After its successful run at VAULT Festival\, “The Good Women” comes to Greenwich Theatre. \n\n\n\nWelcome to 1960s Zürich. While elsewhere\, hippies are celebrating free love and The Beatles and Janis Joplin are rising to fame\, Swiss women still don’t even have the vote. \n\n\n\nBette – the host of a regional TV cooking show – and Trudy – a housewife with a mild alcohol problem – are about to change that – and question their life choices\, their politics\, their sexualities\, and what it means to be a “good woman” in the process. \n\n\n\nYou’ll laugh\, you’ll cry\, and you’ll meet two extraordinary women. \n\n\n\nPRAISE FOR “THE GOOD WOMEN”: \n\n\n\n“The poignant two-hander depicts burgeoning love against a backdrop of political struggle. Simply staged\, the romcom plot balances witty humour\, social injustice & emancipation.” – Fringe Biscuit \n\n\n\n“This thoughtful glimpse into the difficulties faced by women in the 1960s is gently uplifting” – The British Theatre Guide.

SUMMARY:The Good Women
DESCRIPTION:It’s the 1960s and from the counterculture to Woodstock\, the world is changing. But not in conservative Switzerland\, where women did not get the vote until the 1970s and were legally confined to the kitchen and household. Bette\, the star of a popular TV cooking show\, and Trudy\, a housewife\, are about to change that. \n\n\n\n“The Good Women” is a brand-new funny\, bold and romantic piece of theatre inspired by a true story about two extraordinary women.

SUMMARY:Velvet Society – المجتمع المخملي: Power and Glamour in 90s Damascus\, Syria
DESCRIPTION:With Velvet Society\, we strive to empower Syrian women and culture: it is an exhibition displaying the creative acts of survival in fashion and fabric of two Syrian women\, civil engineer Raghad Mardini and Artist Heba Al-Akkad. The exhibition is in conjunction with Refugee Week. We have also organised a series of interactive events that will complement the exhibition\, including two workshops\, one artist-led tour of the exhibition\, one live panel and one webinar.\n. \n\n\n\nAbout The Exhibition\n\n\n\n\nLitehouse Gallery is honoured to present Velvet Society\, an exhibition displaying the creative acts of survival in fashion and fabric of two Syrian women\, civil engineer Raghad Mardini and artist Heba Al-Akkad. The 90s fashion collection of Mardini\, emanating from the wealthy and powerful class of the self-styled “velvet society” prominent in 90s Syria\, will be juxtaposed with a range of vibrant artworks made in fabric and fibre by Heba Al-Akkad. A powerful dialogue will be established between these collections\, to expose a Damascus of the 90s dominated by complexes of glamour and power\, at once joyful yet troubled\, wielded both by and against the women in question.\n\n\n\n\n\nThe exhibition centres itself around the stories of these two Syrian Muslim women. From differing backgrounds\, they\, as refugees from the Syrian uprising\, struck up a friendship founded on a mutual interest in creativity within visual arts. Viewers will bear witness to their testimonies of liberation from religious and patriarchal violence. Photographs\, art objects and items of fashion are displayed to invigorate a commentary on feminism\, female freedom and Syrian history\, linked by the medium of textiles.\n\n\n\n\n\nProf. Janis Jefferies\, Emeritus Professor at Goldsmiths University\, has explained the salience of clothes in this exhibition:\n\n\n\n\nClothing carries powerful signs of non-verbal communication. It covers us\, it represents individual identities that can be played with\, disrupted and challenge what we do in our everyday lives\, both physically and sexually. If we are displaced or exiled from our homes or driven out by war\, what we wear changes. In this exhibition we see how two Muslim women become friends. They connect through art\, through their different relationship with material; a veil is worn\, designer labels are displayed. Photographs act as documents; new objects are made.\n\n\n\n\nBy bringing these stories to UK audiences in a seductive yet forceful exhibition\, fashion devotees and art lovers alike will explore the political nature of clothing\, how it shapes the representation of women in fashion\, society and art. Beliefs about Middle Eastern women will be challenged and a broader and richer recent Syrian history will emerge.\n\n\n\n\n\nHeba Al-Akkad was born in Damascus in 1981. She graduated from the Faculty of Fine Arts at Damascus University 2006. She now lives and works in Gothenburg\, Sweden\, where she has been able to escape the cycle of familial violence and abuse that she suffered since girlhood. She has had solo shows across Europe and the Middle East. Litehouse Gallery has commissioned work from Al-Akkad on themes of self-identity and dress.\n\n\n\n\n\nRaghad Mardini\, on the other hand\, found herself inducted into the “velvet society”\, a figurative term for a class involved in high business and power in Syria during the 90s. Photographs from Mardini’s archive will give visual evidence of the velvet society\, which\, after many years of negotiating its excesses and its alienating demands\, she finally decided to reject. These photographs will be shown alongside a fashion collection supplied by western designers including Dior\, Versace\, Mugler\, Chanel\, Galliano\, YSL\, Alaia as well as Syrian designer Nicola Khoury\, all of which Mardini wore during her time within the velvet society. The exhibition will not just highlight the vibrancy of those times and the relentless glamour demanded in the velvet society\, but will look deeper into how female sexuality was weaponised in the game of politics and money.\n\n\n\n\n\nThis is an exhibition about how\, in 90s Damascus\, fabric dazzled\, lured\, sheltered\, bound\, concealed\, and\, as time wore on\, changed.\n\n.\n\n\n\n\nProgramme of Events\n\n\n\n\nAlongside the exhibition\, we are organising a series of events ranging from workshops and live panels. Like the exhibition\, these events are completely free to attend and require pre-booking.

Many Syrian artists who had fled to Lebanon were unable to continue their practice due to trauma and financial hardship. At ARA\, for a month\, they had bed\, board\, space\, freedom\, and all the materials needed to enable them to make art again. ARA also curated exhibitions and performances worldwide.\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\nEmail info@litehousegallery.co.uk\n\n\n\n\n\nWebsite www.litehousegallery.co.uk\n\n\n\n\n\nOnline Shop www.litehousegalleryshop.co.uk/\n\n\n\n\n\nPhone +44 7833 700 984\n\n.\n\n\n\n\n\nQuick-links www.linktr.ee/litehousegallery\n\n\n\n\n\nInstagram www.instagram.com/litehousegallery\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook www.facebook.com/litehousegallery\n\n\n\n\n\nTwitter www.twitter.com/Litehousegalery\n\n.\n\n\n\n\nExhibition Information\n\n\n\n\n.\n\nExhibition\n\n\n\n\n\nVelvet Society – المجتمع المخملي: Power and Glamour in 90s Damascus\n\n\n\n\n\n.\n\nPresented by\n\n\n\n\n\nLitehouse Gallery\n\n\n\n\n\nwww.litehousegallery.co.uk\n\n\n\n\n\n.\n\nVenue\n\n\n\n\n\nP21 Gallery (Kings Cross)\n\n\n\n\n\n21-27 Chalton Street\, London NW1 1JD\, UK\n\n\n\n\n\nwww.p21.gallery\n\n\n\n\n\n.\n\nDates\n\n\n\n\n\n23rd June – 23rd July\n\n\n\n\n\n.\n\nOpening Hours\n\n\n\n\n\nTuesday\, Thursday & Friday: 12 – 6pm\n\n\n\n\n\nWednesday: 12 – 8pm\n\n\n\n\n\nSaturday: 12 – 4pm\n\n\n\n\n\n.\n\nEntry is free. No appointment necessary.

SUMMARY:Nature Interrupted with Celina Teague
DESCRIPTION:Monstrous hybrid beings appear against acid skies and barren landscapes\, creating surreal\, otherworldly scenes that sit uncomfortably between nightmare and dream. Nature Interrupted\, Celina Teague’s fifth solo show at Kristin Hjellegjerde Gallery\, takes a deep dive into the dark underbelly of our planet’s biosphere\, where human detritus overcome animals and plants. They appear futuristic\, unwholesome\, and alarming. Still\, at the same time\, Teague’s vibrant colour palette commands presence: we are challenged not only to look but to face up to the reality of what we see. \nIn part\, Teague’s artistic practice is an expression of her guilt and responsibility about not only environmental issues but also political and humanitarian crises. She listens to the news and various podcasts as she paints\, allowing the information to filter through onto the canvas so that each composition possesses a raw sense of urgency. ‘I paint instinctively. It always involves risk\, which I find both liberating and frightening. If I painted on a different day or even at a different hour\, the result would be completely different\,’ she says. \nThe work Still I Rise\, for example\, was made when Teague was listening to reports of the conflict in Afghanistan and specifically about the oppression of women. However\, instead of focusing on the bleakness of the situation\, Teague’s perspective is one of hope\, vitality and strength. In the painting\, women dressed in blue burqas appear like flowers blooming at the end of tall lush vines\, the winding\, interconnected stems suggesting a sense of quiet solidarity. Interestingly\, this is the only work in which humanity and nature appear in harmony: the women are supported by the natural world rather than overwhelming it. However\, this relationship becomes skewed in the painting Swallowed. Here\, the women appear huddled together to form the centre of what looks like a pink flower\, but closer inspection reveals that the petals are\, in fact\, severed tongues. In this way\, the work becomes a powerful visual metaphor for how censorship is used as a form of oppression and entrapment. \nAlthough the other works reflect more broadly on the climate crisis\, the notion of mutilation runs throughout the exhibition. In one of the more surreal compositions\, a giant straw pierces through the centre of a flamingo’s body\, which is itself\, assembled from pink\, fleshy human limbs and organs. A mass of breasts and udders replace its feathers while its foot is a claw-like human hand. The strange yellow glow of the sky suggests a sickness or toxicity\, and an egg lies fried on the cracked\, dry ground as if baked in the sun. Like all of Teague’s works\, the bright colour palette is somewhat misleading: we’re unsure whether to laugh or gasp. Is this a horror or a comedy? \nThis deliberate ambiguity creates a strong sense of unease that reflects both the subject matter and Teague’s approach to image-making. ‘My work is sometimes labelled as activist art\, which I find uncomfortable because painting about these issues doesn’t feel like enough\,’ she says. ‘We have all the facts easily accessible to us\, but we still just sit back and watch what’s happening most of the time.’ Teague returns to this notion of ‘armchair activism’ in each of her exhibitions by painting an image of an armchair\, often encompassing elements from the other works to create a sense of unity while also highlighting the irony of her role as an artist. However\, it would be amiss to ignore the power of the image. Teague’s paintings command our gaze and draw our attention to the politics of seeing.

DESCRIPTION:To celebrate IWD\, Connaught Village invites indie bookshop Phlox Books to pop up over March with women-focused books and female author events featuring the likes of Abi Daré and Mona Arshi to showcase the female experience in literary form. \nFounder of East London independent bookshop Phlox Books\, Aimée Madill has proudly been serving ‘Books. Booze. Coffee’ since 2017 and is no stranger to pop-up bookstores in her role as ‘go-to’ for festival bookshops. On this occasion\, Aimée has taken the opportunity IWD has presented to platform female authors and host a series of events in Connaught Village. Located at 12 Connaught Street\, the pop-up will operate as a bookshop and events space where notable authors will discuss their work. \nAt street view\, the front of the bookstore will feature hand-painted illustrations by female illustrator Alezeia Fidalgo who has a penchant for books and creating original illustrations to accompany the text. \nThe first event at Phlox Connaught Village will take place on the day itself\, Tuesday 8th March\, with award-winning author\, Abi Daré\, whose debut novel ‘The Girl With the Louding Voice’ was published in 2020\, longlisted for the Desmond Elliott Prize and chosen as a BBC Radio 4 Book at Bedtime.

SUMMARY:Tea Towels and Tantrums: Live Podcast Panel – London Podcast Festival
DESCRIPTION:London Podcast Festival – Comedian and Funny Women finalist Ola Labib joins Hajar J. Woodland to discuss growing up in (and out of) hijab.\n‘Why have you got a tea towel on your head?’ That’s the question writer\, and performer Hajar J. Woodland was constantly asked throughout her childhood. Raised Muslim\, she was only five when she started wearing the headscarf – well before even the strictest Muslims would consider it mandatory. Thirty years on and no longer a hijabi\, she lives with the conflicts of a British Muslim identity\, which she explored in her podcast Conversations with My Sister. \nHajar’s now bringing the most popular episode\, Tea Towel\, to a live audience. Tea Towels and Tantrums will give you an insight into how it feels to wear the headscarf and why girls wear it. We ask how much of a say parents\, schools and governments should have in what a child wears and cover everything from bodily autonomy and sexuality to cultural conflicts and Islamophobia. \nYes\, we’re focusing on the hijab – but this conversation’s about so much more. We determine what children wear has far-reaching implications for everyone\, so you won’t want to miss this. \nIf you like your discussions funny\, nuanced and empathic\, this is for you. Expect a light touch on one heavy subject!

SUMMARY:Taking Space with Sara Berman - Art Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Gargantuan women appear suspended in soft coloured\, bruising backgrounds\, their bodies twisted in acrobatic movement and dynamic gestures. These are the works of British artist and former\nfashion designer Sara Berman whose practice explores the depth and distortions of materiality in relation to how we view and inhabit the body. She focuses specifically on female experience and is\ndeeply informed by her intimate understanding of fashion and textiles in terms of how we wear\, understand and perceive clothes. \nTaking Space\, Berman’s first solo exhibition with Kristin Hjellegjerde Gallery presents a new collection of gentle and forthright\, whimsical and imposing paintings expressing the complex tensions of womanhood while also gesturing towards a joyous sense of liberated physicality. Each painting begins with the motif of the harlequin.  \nTraditionally\, the harlequin is portrayed as male — a sly but lovable joker\, dressed in a bright diamond-patterned costume. However\, the same character as a woman becomes a trickster whore. While this articulates a familiar double standard\, Berman’s interest lies in how external appearances might impact our perspective of self and others. \nShe begins by stretching the canvas very tightly over the frame before painting the distinctive pattern of the harlequin’s costume as a base layer onto the canvas\, which becomes “a map” or “the soul” of the composition. She then works over the pattern with further layers of paint\, scraping\, wiping and pushing to create a kind of bruised surface through which the outlines of the diamond shapes are illuminated by light. “The colours I choose are generally soft and gentle\,” she says\, “but the making process is very physical\, almost violent. I feel\, increasingly\, as I get older that being a woman is a violent thing.” \nThe shapes of the women are generally based on photographs of friends or self-portraits for which Berman uses furniture and\, more recently\, acrobatic equipment to help her achieve contortion and elevation. Regardless of the original models\, there is a strong likeness between the figures\, as if they are multiple iterations of the same person. “At a certain point\, I realised that I didn’t want to get bound up in the who or the what\,” explains Berman. “Self-portraits are the easiest way for me to not deal with the specifics of identity. They’re simply women in space. By painting them as myself\, it’s a way of avoiding objectification.” Instead\, personality and emotion are conveyed through the figures’ physical gestures in space\, and the textures and shapes of their clothing\, as well as the application of the paint itself. \nWhile the compositions might appear precise and simple from a distance\, closer inspection reveals markings that imply the weaving of threads; subtle imperfections where the colours bleed out of the lines or splashes of paint are flicked across the canvas; and surprising pops of neon colour that suggest a pooling of light or passing shadows. \n“These paintings are about the sensation of being in the body\,” says Berman. “I use clothing intentionally as space which contains the body\, a place for it to exist within a holding space.” The clothing is usually androgynous in style\, based on pieces by known fashion designers and vintage finds. Still\, through the process of painting\, the artist flattens the garments\, removing the folds and seams of the fabric so that it becomes a rigid shape that simultaneously contains and abstracts the body. This is perhaps most obvious in the painting entitled Freefall\, in which the figure is caught moving through the air. While we might recognise and relate to the physical sensation of the movement\, the body itself is obscured by the clothing’s colour and structure\, and the lack of surrounding context creates an almost surreal effect. Similarly\, the women’s hands are often painted out of proportion to appear huge and claw-like\, gripped in tension\, or delicate and oddly small. \nThe fingernails are always painted black\, creating a striking contrast against the pale\, pastel shades and directing our gaze towards a particular gesture. For example\, in the painting\nMoves\, which depicts one woman leaning back against another\, the hands articulate a sense of dynamism – the sensation of pushing and pulling\, while the figures themselves are relatively static. \nThe woman at the front has her hands reaching back in a gesture of intimacy\, while the other woman’s arm stretches across the canvas as if trying to establish some distance or separation.\nThe works in the show range in scale. The smaller works contain the figure in an almost claustrophobic frame\, which is both uncomfortably tight and curiously intimate\, while the large-scale\npaintings have a powerful impact on the process of making and the viewer’s bodily relation to the image. Berman was required to use ladders and large brushes to do these larger works\,\nrendering limbs and faces much bigger than her own. “I want them to feel as imposing as they felt to me\,” she says. “These paintings are very much about claiming presence as a person\, as a woman. \nThere’s a slight arrogance to them which I like because taking space is an act of necessary selfishness.” At the same time\, the gentle colour palette and playful approach to composition\nconvey a palpable sense of humour and joy. As Berman’s women boldly tumble across the canvas\, asserting their strength and physicality\, we are invited to experience a heightened awareness of how we move through and occupy the world we live in.
