 Photo image of cards I was dealt during David Blandy's worldmaking game at the event I've been invited by Delfina Foundation to present a talk at the Nottingham Contemporary Art Gallery.
Mutation / Resilience is a day-long gathering reflecting on speculative, transdisciplinary practices that deal with food, land and communing, to speculate about how to contribute to building resilient communities. The gathering brings together associates from Delfina Foundation’s Politics of Food and Nottingham Contemporary’s Emergency & Emergence investigating the ways in which forms of life deviate and create new life forms. Presentations by Rebecca Beinart, David Blandy, Beth Kettel, Maya Marshak, Theo Reeves-Evison, Mita Solanky  Leicester Print Workshop’s Print Bazaar will take place on Saturday 19th & Sunday 20th November, 10am – 4pm as part of Leicester Art Week.

I have been selected alongside poet Ioney Smallhorne to take up residence in the NAE Mezzanine Gallery space, using the building as a base to create work and engage with different groups.

I'll really looking forward to meeting, learning, and sharing work with practitioners from a broad spectrum of fields, disciplines, and cultures.
