What traces do we leave behind?

A solitary performer works low on the ground with charcoal and paper. Over time, the graphic, material and acoustic residues of her drawing score spread, entangle and resonate across the site. You are free to walk around, come close, or view from afar.


ABOUT THE ARTIST

Katrina Brown is a choreographer working across movement, drawing and still-and-moving image. She works with time, repetition, rhythm and orientation. Her work is shown in gallery situations, and in material and digital documents which extend activities of moving, drawing, sensing and thinking onto the page.

Any words for a damaged planet?

Bibliotherapy for the Anthropocene is a performance in the guise of a reading group, a faux-Quaker meeting, a reconvening of the Dead Poets Society. No prior reading is necessary, all participants will receive a strata of reading material as part of the invitationin advance.

Bram will also exhibit sculptural lecterns at OSR Projects and Coker Court. Each lectern is made of a mixture of Cornish hedgerow materials, studio de-clutterings and found detritus.
Developed with the support of Horizon and Plymouth Culture.

Bram Thomas Arnold is an artist who started with walking and kept going, into performance, installation, broadcasting and bibliotherapy.

Can we speak with song?

The artist will sing to one person at a time, sitting on opposite chairs, while the rest of the audience listens. Anyone is welcome to sit on the chair as it becomes free. The listener can choose to sing back to the artist, in any language. Tango Therapy is an intimate and personal exchange of songs, without technology or amplification. Understanding the lyrics is not necessary: melody and sentiment cross the borders of language.

 


ABOUT THE ARTIST

Heidi Kilpeläinen explores crossovers between visual art and music, creating combinations of video, installation art and performance. Her work is inspired by the contemporary world and its technological fascinations, as well as the ancient, mythological forms that run through collective memory.
