Maggie Jennings: Verdance at the Highgate Gallery
These vibrant drawings and paintings from nature are active celebrations of the energy and urgency of life, and life’s transformation and decay. They develop themes from Jennings successful show at Highgate Gallery 5 years ago. The shock of Covid lockdown caused the artist to experience both claustrophobia and a liberating freedom from established routine. She spent time sketching her garden’s wild proliferation; the mass and tangle of plant growth studied up-close giving rise to a wealth of visual information, resulting in some paintings being worked like tapestry. These shown alongside her delicate prints of individual plant studies.
Wednesdays to Fridays 13:00-17:00, Saturdays 11:00-16:00 Sundays 11:00-17:00, Mondays & Tuesdays Closed

Describing Landscape
7 – 20 July
From the monumental geography of landscapes to the interwoven detail, nature is in a state of perpetual change in Lyn-Melville James paintings.
Lines, patterns and slabs of colour give emotional force to these works, which go beyond describing landscape to describing “a never ending orchestration of life force”.
A powerful show which includes graphite drawings, lino cuts, etchings and pastels.
Gallery open:
Weds – Fri: 13.00 – 17.00
Saturday: 11.00 – 16.00

Three generations of gutsy circus women recast their narrative. This multi award-winning show is feminist and funny. The three women cast off the stereotypes that bind them while performing some downright dangerous acrobatics, talking politics as they balance precariously and support one another.
Three generations of gutsy circus women recast their narrative. This multi award-winning show is feminist and funny. The three women cast off the stereotypes that bind them while performing some downright dangerous acrobatics, talking politics as they balance precariously and support one another.
It’s a sticky situation. A kaleidoscope of circus, acrobatics, dance and live music combine to tell the story of Queen Bee and Worker Bee who must work together to rebuild their hive after being destroyed by a bushfire. But things never quite go to plan. Join the bees in their buzzy adventure.
Suitable for ages 3+
Performances at 11am & 2pm
Whitman is an artist/printmaker who frequently draws inspiration from myths, literature and story-telling. Her engagement in a range of media and her understanding of the historical context of particular material processes inform her fascination with the idea of transformation. At Highgate Gallery she will be showing works created inresponse to: the Greek myth Demeter and Persephone; Emily Bront’s novel Wuthering Heights; and, the subject of Transformation itself, works which Whitman refers to collectively as ‘Alchemical Allegories’. The thread binding her content together is the notion of a domain existing within, and beyond – the material world.
