About this event

This gathering will share reflections on the work of artist Ithell Colquhoun.

How can readings of Ithell Colquhoun’s work illuminate the role of individual transformation in relation to a collective movement for change? This event will critically engage with inherent and acquired relationships to place, with topics including artistic ritual, art making as community activity and spirituality and the land.

The event begins with an exhibition viewing of Ithell Colquhoun: Between Worlds, and welcome evening on Friday 2 May, followed by a gathering at Porthmeor Studios on Saturday 3 May. This event coincides with a gallery wide weekend of performance and music at Tate St Ives to celebrate the last weekend of the exhibition. Attendees will have time to experience writing and making workshops as well as the programme of talks as part of the gathering.

Speakers include Dr D Ferrett, Associate Professor of Music, Sound and Culture at Falmouth University and Research Lead for the Academy of Music and Theatre Arts (AMATA), Dr Amy Hale who has written extensively on Colquhoun, including the recent Sex Magic: Diagrams of Love and contributions from the Canadian writers and academics Astrida Neimanis and Norah Bowman.
