London artist Dee McLean is set to unveil her poignant trilogy ‘My Places’, a compelling series of paintings and
books that explore the profound effects of global warming on locations dear to her heart. This work journeys
from her home near Hampstead Heath in London, through Louisiana in the US where she worked for part of
her career, to Alberta, Canada, where her daughter Tor lives. She explores how they are all intimately
linked by the changing global climate.
The inception of this trilogy was sparked by a visit to Hudson Bay, Manitoba, Canada, in November 2016.
Witnessing first-hand one of the stark environmental changes due to global warming, the reduction of sea ice,
deeply influenced her work. This trip marked the beginning of McLean’s exploration into the impact of climate
change on her cherished places, from extreme rainfall in Britain to rising sea levels in Louisiana and wildfires
and glacial melt in Alberta.
Her art takes its vision from the geology, flora and fauna of each place, looking to capture the ephemeral
nature of these environments through the lens of climate change. The paintings are a direct response to
the immersive beauty and high value of our ecosystems.
Dee McLean’s background in art and science uniquely positions her to create this impactful work. She
studied illustration at Harrow School of Art and pursued a career in Medical and Scientific Illustration.
Now, she merges her love of science and art in ‘My Places’, aiming to inspire others to recognize their
role in environmental conservation.
McLean has most recently exhibited at Highgate Gallery, London; studioMV, Louisiana and The Jasper
Yellowhead Museum, Canada.
All McLean’s projects have a local charity attached to them. Donations will be made to Heath Hands, the voluntary
organisation on Hampstead Heath and the Jasper Community Team Society who are supporting the community in
one of her ‘Places’, Jasper, Alberta, where a ferocious wildfire, driven by the climate crisis, has recently destroyed.
30% of homes and businesses in the small mountain town. For further information about both these groups go to:

Highgate Gallery is open:

Wed – Fri: 13.00 – 17.00

Sat & Sun: 10.00 – 16.00

Join rising British stars Emily Masser and Alex Clarke for an evening of fiery, straight-ahead music as part of the EFG London Jazz Festival.

A student at the Guildhall School of Music, Emily Masser’s range, variation and seemingly effortless delivery reflect a confidence and ability which belie her years. Her strengths as an arranger and vocalist have received multiple plaudits, highlighting her scat singing in particular.

As a finalist at the BBC Young Jazz Musician of the Year 2020, winner of the Rising Star category in the 2019 British Jazz Awards and Jazz Newcomer of the Year nominee in the 2021 & 2022 and 2024 Parliamentary Jazz Awards, Alex Clarke is one of the most in-demand and versatile young reeds players to have emerged on the British jazz scene. Lauded for her extensive repertoire list and intelligent ear for harmony, her sound is steeped in the tradition of bebop and her deep respect for the heritage of the music can be heard in a hard-swinging, melodic approach reminiscent of Scott Hamilton and Lester Young, with strong bop influences of Phil Woods and Cannonball Adderley.

Performing alongside them are some most respected names in British jazz: pianist Graham Harvey, drummer Steve Brown and Dave Green on bass. This generational mix of performers is not to be missed.

“A story between stories…
The clock’s pendulum suspends…
For a new tale to start,
The old tale must end…”

Set sail on a breathtaking journey through the imagination where young heroes fight to outwit the world’s richest man, save Mother Nature from destruction and pilot an fantastical Arck made of old books to the land of Galapagos.  

This modern myth of courage, rebellion, and hope takes us from the edge of space to the depths of the ocean. At its centre is the fearless orphan Juno who is living alone on a mountain of trash until she’s chosen for an impossible mission.    

It’s a thrilling, high-energy ride for audiences young and old. Prepare to be swept up in the magic of physical theatre, puppetry, and live music, all performed by the UK’s finest talent from Flabbergast Theatre, Complicite and Created a Monster. With song, dance and a powerful score played on repurposed trash instruments, this world premiere is unlike anything you’ve seen  – or heard – before!

Join us at the very start of this awe-inspiring global tour—an adventure that reminds us of the power of hope, imagination, and the boundless spirit of the young.

Set sail on a breath-taking journey through the imagination where young heroes fight to save Mother Nature from destruction, outwit the world’s richest man and pilot a fantastical Arck made of old books to the land of Galapagos.

FREE ADMISSION
Open Daily 12-4 [Wednesdays 11-3]

Hilary gained her BA at Nottingham and her MA at the Painting School of the The Royal College of Art, London. She lives in London and works from her studio in Bethnal Green. Hilary is a member of The Printmakers Council and The East London Print Studio. Most of the prints on display are one-off monoprints which are multilayered images using materials such as lino, perspex and stencils to achieve the required layering and painterly depth.

Hilary’s work is in many public and private collections worldwide including the Victoria and Albert Museum and The Museum of London; The Zeiss Collection in Hamburg, Germany; and The L.V Prasad Eye Hospital in Hyderabad, India. She works in several mediums including acrylics, watercolours, printing and embroidery. This current exhibition includes includes new acrylic paintings and monoprints based on riverscapes in Bath and Oxford, worked up from watercolours and sketches made in-situ.

Other themes illustrated at the Lauderdale House Exhibition include sumptuous still lives, the Beauty of Nature, steamy jazz clubs and images of isolation with solitary figures viewing the outside world from mysterious interiors.

During the lockdown months, Hilary researched Greek Myths and was inspired by Asclepius, the Greek god of medicine who was taught his art by snakes. He is remembered to this day by the use of the serpent in the badges and arms of medical associations around the world. There is also on display a painting depicting the Three Greek Fates: Clotho, Lachesis and Atropos who respectively spun, measured and finally cut the Thread of Life. A particularly appropriate concept during the Pandemic.

This exciting and eclectic exhibition at Lauderdale House is open daily from 6 February to 3 March 2025 [12-4 except 11-3 Wednesdays]
