A session for local Bow artists to connect with each other, with ourselves, and with our environment. The workshop will be led by artist Enni-Kukka Tuomala, who has run projects on empathy with everyone from the Finnish government to the BBC.
This event is part of Is there space for empathy? – an exhibition by Finnish artist Enni-Kukka Tuomala, which examined what empathy meant in 2021, in a post-Brexit, post-Covid, post-colonial Britain. Tuomala looks at what role empathy can play in helping us re-enter public life and re-discover physical closeness with each other once again. Her installation made empathy – an often abstract and intangible feeling – into a physical and tangible form we can see, feel and enter.
The event will take place outdoors (with cover from the elements), with COVID-19 safety measures in place. You can read our COVID-19 access statement here.
