SUMMARY:Seeing Art with the Whole Body - A New Workshop Series by Claire Loussouarn
DESCRIPTION:‘Seeing art with the whole body’\, we will explore how to listen and receive an artist’s artwork\, and world with the three-dimensionality of our sensory bodies. \nFor our first workshop in this series at IMT Gallery we will have the pleasure to dialogue with Fran Hayes’ artwork. Her exhibition Thick\, Stretchy\, Sticky Space features digital paintings and video works that delve into speculative landscapes\, inspired by damaged ecologies\, science-fiction\, and the uncanny; all viewed through a profoundly human lens. \n🪩 For a glimpse of what to expect\, watch Claire’s Moving Meditation via our link in bio. \nClaire Loussouarn is a movement artist and somatic wizard. She’ll bring some of her magic to make you look at artwork from a fresh and new perspective. You will be invited to follow simple movement scores to attune to your senses\, change your perspective through space and challenge our normal default position of focused forward vision. You will learn to trust your body and its subtle felt sense in response to artwork\, letting go of preconceptions about how you should conduct yourself in an art gallery. \n🎟️ ‘Seeing Art with the Whole Body’ will take place on Tuesday 18 June at 7pm. Get your tickets via our link in bio. Tower Hamlets residents attend for FREE! \nSee you there!

SUMMARY:Kenji Lim | Spend Time Not Thinking About Tomorrow
DESCRIPTION:  \nUnder clear\, magenta skies\, they choose to settle\, nursed by the shade of passing trees. Warmth still lingers in the grasslands\, but the day is fading fast. Shadows of nightwings flicker over the hay\, swooping into branchy nests. \nStep lightly\, and take care of the amoeba underfoot. Leave no trace. The pitter-patter of pseudotoes echoes down desire paths between the shallow groves. Time glides with no familiar route ahead\, and dappled light scatters like many marbles over the blueish plains. The sun is falling\, auburn rays shine over swathes of caterpillar reeds\, their eyes peeping into the beams of last light. Cat tongues uncurl from bleary-faced cocoons\, eager for the night\, for a taste. \nOrbs wait above a lake\, rolling in place\, humming an absent-minded tune. A purr of regeneration dances on the air currents\, charging the lake below. In between contented rocks\, jewel water flows\, giving life to uncommon lands. Fur-laden tracks lead away\, soggy from the fuchsia puddles\, fluffy ends squeezing into secret mossy holes. \nLook down. Fleshy cups\, suckered at the rim of the lake spit pearls along the shoreline. Hungry mouths gape\, teeth brace\, swallowing dusk. Lichen bubbles between a chorus of drinking bristles\, the body hair of this earth. Life is not just surface-bound and sensible. It rains onto the ground\, sunstained\, settling to graze on this rich mess of violet roots.Please don’t touch the wildlife; take it for what it is. \nNew and unexpected stars yield an entangled bond\, shifting form when seen or unseen. That happens here\, between each button paw\, craggy horn\, and stalking eye. It plays out all at once\, under the trail of the moons. \nCan we ask about hills and waters or sing about bracken and fungus? They murmur into each other’s ears. They come down over a cliff face in a river of slime and leaf-fall\, tumbling into the reflection of a low pool. \nIn the age of unconquered pasture\, the wind grazes an unembraceable heaven\, a shyer blush of pink and blue. Rosey hills fold neatly\, with an orange sun hurrying to set between them. The beings beneath its gaze continue\, undisturbed\, as they always have. \nThey rest. Their silence whispers\, off you go now; this place was never meant for you. \nText by Charlotte Cole \nKenji Lim is a British artist based in Essex and born in Singapore. Lim studied sculpture at the Royal College of Art\, London (MA – 2017-2019) and at the Ruskin School of Art\, Oxford University (BFA – 1999-2002). Lim works through sculpture\, video\, digital collage\, installation and painting. His work reflects and refracts the landscape experience through the prisms of culture\, myth\, philosophy\, and the metaphysical\, returning the gaze of Western cultural norms through the eyes of other-than-human actors. Part archaeological\, part Fraggle Rock\, he navigates alternative modes of seeing and understanding the world and its inhabitants. Lim’s work is shown internationally\, including recent exhibitions\, such as Tourist at Galerie Reinthaler\, Vienna\, and Perishing Thirst at Quench Gallery\, Margate. He is an Acme Work/Live Artist at High House in Purfleet\, Essex.

SUMMARY:Plant Gazing: Under Dandelion Moon
DESCRIPTION:Step into the enchanting realm of artist Joseph Walsh’s transformative workshop\, where alchemy and artistic expression interweave. \nAs we approach May we see the emergence of the Dandelion Moon.  Flora of spring is appearing and some are nutrient rich to support our flourishing. This workshop offers a unique opportunity to connect with plant allies and set personal intentions for the coming months. \nImmerse yourself in the IMT Gallery space\, subtly smudged with Clary Sage and Rose to encourage chi flow and inspire clarity. A curated selection of plants will be available for drawing\, accompanied by prompts and guidance on the techniques of plant gazing and observation. Joseph Walsh will guide you through a series of “warm up” exercises for shifting habitual ways of looking\, moving on to experimental longer durational drawing sketches. Prompts will be given to glean and speculate what may be communicated by shape\, form and behaviour\, what Anthropologist Gregory Bateson calls “transforms of environment”. \nTake a moment to ground yourself and reconnect with your body\, sipping on Dandelion (Taraxacum officinale) tea\, cultivated and harvested from Joseph’s wildlife plot. Rich in vitamins\, minerals and antioxidants\, it pioneers and restores poor soil\, whilst in our own bodies\, it tonifies liver and kidneys. We will take influence from this earth regulator to set our own intentions into spring. As a special takeaway\, participants will receive a portion of this tea – an intentional offering for personal contemplation or to share with someone special. \nJoseph Walsh\, an artist rooted in forging human-nature connections through his work with plants. Using drawing\, painting and film to actualise a co-existing with nature. Having studied Fine Art at Goldsmiths University\, he brings artistic insight to our journey. Joseph recently delivered the course ‘Floral Time: How Artists Describe Plants’ at the Berlin Art Institute\, workshops at Beaconsfield Gallery and No Show Project Space\, as well as sharing his expertise with art students at Goldsmiths and Reading University. \nThis workshop is designed for individuals who seek to deepen their connection with nature and explore their creative potential. No prior experience is required – just an open heart and a curious mind. While drawing materials will be provided\, feel free to bring your own sketchbooks and preferred materials to enhance your experience. \nBelow we offer you a glimpse of what to expect from Joseph’s workshop\, as told by previous participants: \n“The workshop was well structured\, and thus we were able to connect with the plant on a deeper level. Joe is a meticulous facilitator. Thank you”. – participant \n“A very naturally held space offering freedom to be intuitive\, and be yourself. The time flowed perfectly. An exploration and very close look into the oneness\, mirroring thoughts within the group. What a full whole\, rich experience with the plants\, yourself and each other.” – participant \nReserve your spot now for an evening of inspiration and connection. A limited number of tickets are available free of charge for residents of Tower Hamlets. See you there!
