Join artist, filmmaker, and art technician Richard Waterton in this interactive workshop on the fundamentals of art handling and installation, including hanging methods and hardware, tools and equipment, live demonstrations, and personalised advice and feedback.
Explore an electric international collaboration between a composer/performer and a dancer/choreographer with accompanying artists, coming together for the first time in the UK as part of the Nunnery Cafe Residency.
Join interdisciplinary artist Jack Ky Tan as he breaks down what contracts are, their purpose, how to challenge contractual terms that are weighted against the artist, and how to advocate for your right to understand the formal agreements you are entering into as an artist. Jack will also offer two creative examples of contracts that are dyslexia-inclusive and that incorporate more-than-colonial approaches.
