Traces of Being is a gathering of voices which has culminated in a tapestry of various memories, identities, and transformations woven through the hands of 11 visionary artists. Each at a different stage in their career, they bring forth stories etched in paint, fibre, film, and form – whispers of histories, echoes of love, and the shifting landscapes of self and place.
If you wish to attend the PV evening it is taking place on Wednesday 12th from 5-7.
On the evening you can also enjoy Statues Also Move, a live performance by María de la O Garrido, expanding on her long-term project Statues Also Die (S.A.D)—an evolving archive exploring her experience as a life model. Performed with Carmen Gray and María Paton, the piece examines movement, migration, and belonging, reflecting on the changing significance of the body, especially post-Brexit. Inspired by Embodied Activism and Ego Geometria Sum, the performance transforms static poses into fluid transitions, embodying resistance, connection, and personal history. As part of the group exhibition Traces of Being, a video from S.A.D will also be displayed.
The gallery is open Wed-Sun & Bank Holidays, 11 am–4 pm
Free admission, donations warmly welcomed
