Have you ever seen someone buried alive in makeup?

You can see this man has scars. But they’re so far below the top layer, it would take an industrial sandblaster to even them out. And it’s easier to trowel on a few more inches of concealer.

Psychodermabrasion is a red raw tragicomedy about damage done beneath the skin. Live action fuses with recorded sound and projected image to create an offbeat musical monologue. Honest, audacious and bleakly comic, this is a show for anyone who looks in the mirror and can’t.

The eagerly-anticipated début from actor and musician Matthew Floyd Jones(Frisky & Mannish), in association with cult performance artist Dickie Beau.

Sex, love and violence in black, pink and turquoise.

A twisted, mystical tribe have gathered in a black fortress. As music, specially composed for the performance, takes over and the family reunion goes awry, the end result is shattered minds and damaged bodies. But who are these people? What do they need? It is universal. It is globally wanted.

The iron cube on the stage is a small mansion, a family home for the strange characters, and it fills with vulnerability and violence. Globally Wanted is a performance of absurd happenings told through circus, acrobatics, parkour, physical theatre and an ingenious design. It pulls the audience so deep into the performance that it is rarely experienced.

Finnish company, Company Uusi Maailma performs for the very first time in London with the UK premiere of Globally Wanted.

”Globally Wanted is a blackish burlesque belch straight at your face. – I have no idea what this could be compared to. Not to anything. Scary, and at the same time pleasurably filling the senses.”
– Helsingin Sanomat, Finland’s leading newspaper

Globally Wanted shows at Jackson’s Lane has been carried out with the support of Finnish Circus Information Centre.

Les Femmes Circus are an all-female circus troupe who combine circus with theatre, dance, singing and percussion to create work that is exciting, moving and breathtaking.

The company are all graduates of the National Centre for Circus Arts and use a range of circus disciplines in their work including aerial, acrobatics, hula hoop and juggling.

With an aesthetic based in the 1950s, Les Femmes Circus use comedy and manipulation to create a world where circus is the norm, playing with fear, love and fantasy, and revealing how fun it can be to misbehave.

Fierce and full of power, the company want to connect with their audiences – and to do so not only by performing tricks, but by telling a story, revealing their feelings, and allowing the audience to fully experience the performance, both visually and emotionally.

The predictability of Chaos and the uncertainty of Order are the focus for this dynamic and colourful exhibition of paintings and drawings at Highgate Gallery from May 18^th until May 31^st.

Order and Chaos philosophies have peppered religious and scientific history for millennia with ideas formed around the ‘Chaos Theory’ coming to the fore in the middle of last century.  These are the subject matter for playful new works, many executed in low relief which adds to the visual uncertainty – a change in the angle of view reveals aspects that cannot be seen from elsewhere.

Slade trained Stephen Brooks has often played with ideas and questions that have created ideological dilemmas.  This was also the case in a previous exhibition, ‘Ptolemy’s Mythtake’ at Highgate Gallery in 2008.

Steve Brooks trained in Fine Art at the Harris College of Art, Preston, and the Slade School of Fine Art UCL.

For several years he was the Studio Assistant to Richard Hamilton, a founder of the British Pop Art Movement, who lived in Highgate before moving to Oxfordshire,

Alongside Steve’s fine art career he taught Design and Drawing in Oxfordshire, Bournemouth and London whilst also being involved in a graphic design business with his wife.

Having lived and worked in various parts of the UK including The Orkney Isles, Dorset, London, Oxfordshire and Wales, he is now based in Herefordshire.

He has held one man shows in London, the Home Counties and Herefordshire, and was chosen to represent Herefordshire as the Three Choirs Festival Artist in 2006.  His paintings and drawings are in collections in the UK, Europe and overseas.

Steve’s connection with Highgate goes back to the 70s where he lived and worked.  He had two one man shows at the Highgate Society building, one being an exhibition of Drawings and Etchings of Highgate Cemetery in an effort to raise awareness and funds for the then neglected site.

Chaos² is his third Exhibition at Highgate Literary and Scientific Institution’s Highgate Gallery.

Steve Brooks trained in Fine Art at the Harris College of Art, Preston, and the Slade School of Fine Art UCL.

For several years he was the Studio Assistant to Richard Hamilton, a founder of the British Pop Art Movement, who lived in Highgate before moving to Oxfordshire,

Alongside Steve’s fine art career he taught Design and Drawing in Oxfordshire, Bournemouth and London whilst also being involved in a graphic design business with his wife.

Having lived and worked in various parts of the UK including The Orkney Isles, Dorset, London, Oxfordshire and Wales, he is now based in Herefordshire.

He has held one man shows in London, the Home Counties and Herefordshire, and was chosen to represent Herefordshire as the Three Choirs Festival Artist in 2006.  His paintings and drawings are in collections in the UK, Europe and overseas.

Steve’s connection with Highgate goes back to the 70s where he lived and worked.  He had two one man shows at the Highgate Society building, one being an exhibition of Drawings and Etchings of Highgate Cemetery in an effort to raise awareness and funds for the then neglected site.

Chaos² is his third Exhibition at Highgate Literary and Scientific Institution’s Highgate Gallery.
