Elspeth Hamilton, Rough and Smooth @ Highgate Gallery
Feb 10 @ 11:00 am – 5:00 pm

Interdisciplinary artist Elspeth Hamilton, who has also worked as an architect, glass artist, teacher, writer and environmental educator, presents an exhibition which spans over 40 years of work and focuses thematically on seascapes, riverscapes and portraits.

Her expressive paintings explore the language between figuration and abstraction, and are preoccupied with the tension Hamilton sees between ‘rough and smooth’, both in terms of the forces of nature, and our experience of life.  It was a preoccupation she first realised on the Pembrokeshire coast where she was fascinated by the stillness of a rock pool juxtaposed with the wild sea. On the coastline in Dominica, she depicts the effects of erosion on the dramatic cliffs. In Spain, she captures an approaching storm and in Cornwall the elemental drama where sea meets rugged cliffs.

Wednesdays to Fridays 13:00-17:00, Saturdays 11:00-16:00Sundays 11:00-17:00, Mondays & Tuesdays Closed Private View: Friday 10 February 2023 18:00-20:30

DIRECT FILM, DIRECT ACTION WORKSHOP @ LUX
Feb 14 @ 1:30 pm – 4:30 pm
DIRECT FILM, DIRECT ACTION WORKSHOP @ LUX

What are your experiences of nature and green spaces?

How can we change the future of our environment?

Come along to a free direct film and sound recording workshop inspired by the current LUX exhibition Right of Way. Using natural elements found in Waterlow Park, as well as painting, writing, drawing and scratching directly onto 16mm celluloid film, participants will make individual direct film animations. We will edit these together alongside sound recordings from the session, to make a collaborative short film that expresses thoughts, feelings and demands about our future relationship with green space and nature.

At the end of the workshop we will project the films we’ve made together in the exhibition space at LUX. Participants will be able to take home their sections of direct film if they wish.

 

For 11-16 year olds. Snacks & refreshments provided. 

The workshop runs from 1:30-4:30, but you can join in throughout the session.

Free, no need to book.

If young people are attending the workshop unaccompanied they will need to sign in and out at the start and end of the workshop. 

 

DIRECT FILM, DIRECT ACTION is part of Film Club, a project by artist Amy Feneck in collaboration with LUX and its local communities.

Barely Visible @ Jacksons Lane

With incredible strength, a pole and a lot of humour, this powerful solo performance explores identity, objectification and what it is to be a gay, ‘barely visible’ woman in a raw and physical journey of empowerment.

With elements of physical theatre, pole and contemporary dance, Rowena Gander, and acclaimed physical theatre director, Elinor Randle, bring playfulness, authenticity, and boldness to this mesmerising work.

“Gander is an incredible physical theatre performer” Number 9

CHOOSH! @ Jacksons Lane

One of the best-reviewed and most in-demand debut shows of this year’s Edinburgh Fringe, from the award-winning Julia Masli.

★★★★ “Properly bonkers… very funny.” The Scotsman

Julia is an Estonian-born, London-based clown. She trained at the Ecole Philippe Gaulier, and now is a visiting teacher there. CHOOSH! is her absurd homage to migration, in which a hungry Eastern European clown voyages to America for a hot dog.

★★★★ “Julia Masli is a performer of such charm, wit and invention that Choosh! is a delight: adorable, unaffected, funny, surprising – and flush with creative, low-fi scenes that will linger in the memory.” Chortle

Professor Slug’s House of Bugs @ Jacksons Lane

Professor Slug's House of Bugs @ Jacksons Lane

Professor Slug’s House of Bugs is a show all about bugs. Professor Slug is an eccentric expert on invertebrates who helps bugs out with their buggy problems – and you can too!

Get as strong as an ant! Teach a bee how to buzz! And help a dung beetle make a pooey perfume for its big date…

The House of Bugs is fully booked with all sorts of bugs seeking help from Professor Slug and his fellow bug experts (that’s you, the audience!) But can all these buggy problems be solved before the Queen Bee arrives, or will a swarm of honey-hungry wasps wreak havoc?

From the co-creator of the award winning One Duck Down, this interactive show is packed full of colourful puppets, catchy songs, and educational info about the wonderful world of bugs.

The puppets are designed by Georgia Hill (CBeebies) with music written by Catriona Gisby (Elle & the Pocket Belles).

Professor Slug’s House of Bugs is proud to be supported by charity partner Buglife.

Suitable for ages 3+
