🥂📣 Next Up Jane Millar 📣 Come join the conversation & get to know this artists intriguing practice - Jane Millar makes hand-built clay and ceramic sculptures that explore speculative futures and the relationship between human and more-than-human environments.

Drawing on research into early humans, material culture and environmental change, her works combine familiar yet strangely repurposed forms — tools, hooks, bricks, bulbs, moons, brushes and vessels — creating objects whose purpose feels uncertain, practical, ritual or perhaps magical.

Millar thinks of these works as a kind of future archaeology: objects from a place-in-progress, where there are no instructions and meanings remain open. For her, imagining futures and making new realities becomes a creative strategy for hope and survival.

Jane Millar joins us Thursday 3 September at 7pm for One Artist | One Work | One Conversation.

📣📣The first work actually on the wall.📣📣

For the third edition of **One Artist / One Work / One Conversation**, we welcome Hampshire-based figurative painter **Georgina Lowbridge** with *New Dad*.

Lowbridge’s paintings emerge from close observation of contemporary family life. Since becoming a mother in 2022, her attention has increasingly turned to parenthood, domestic intimacy and the subtle negotiations between family members, technology and their shared environment.

In *New Dad*, her husband sleeps fully clothed on the sofa, surrounded by the remnants and paraphernalia of early parenthood—including dinner plates, wet wipes and a breast pump. Monumentalising this familiar moment, Lowbridge transforms domestic exhaustion into a scene of tenderness, vulnerability and quiet humour.

Join us tomorrow evening as we spend time with one painting, one artist and the conversation that unfolds between them.

**Georgina Lowbridge**

📣Talk 2 — Up Next!📣
One Artist. One Work. One Conversation. Kai-Hsuan Chang

We had such a great evening last Thursday with Victoria Gong Victoria Gong 龚 珏眉 Now, another chance to gather, slow down, spend time with a single work — and hear directly from the artist who made it.

Thursday 20 August, 7pm
Kai-Hsuan Chang

Kai-Hsuan Chang is a Taiwanese Paiwan artist based in London, working across sculpture, installation, performance and moving image.

Drawing on Indigenous histories, family memory and experiences of displacement, his practice explores how identities, bodies and landscapes are reshaped by systems of power — and the shifting space between belonging and estrangement.

Bringing together everyday, industrial and handcrafted materials, his work connects personal and Indigenous memory with larger histories of colonialism, technology and cultural transformation. Meaning is not offered through a single image or fixed narrative; it emerges slowly through material, scale, distance, balance and encounter.

Come and spend time with the work.
Gather. Look. Listen. Ask questions. Stay for the conversation.

💕Thank you Victoria Gong for being the very first One Artist / One Wall / One Conversation.💕

Despite record-breaking heat and a few inevitable first-night technical glitches, Victoria’s extraordinary video work DRACULA + THE MACHINE held the room.

What made the evening so special was the opportunity to slow down, spend time with one work, and hear directly from the artist. Victoria spoke with such intelligence and openness about the deeply personal territory behind the work, the challenges of making it, and the thinking that shaped it.

I’m thrilled to have had the opportunity to get to know Victoria and her practice more deeply — and enormously grateful to her for trusting us with such an impressive work for the first evening of this new series. Thank you to the great audience for great questions & for rescuing

Thank you, Victoria. What a way to begin.

One Artist. One Wall. One Conversation.
Time to look. Time to listen. Time to understand.

📣📣Starting Next Thursday 7pm! 13 August — Victoria Gong📣📣

One Artist. One Work. One Conversation.

In a world of endless scrolling, fleeting attention and exhibition overload, this series is an invitation to do something different.

To gather. To slow down. To spend time with the artists and a single work of art.

Each evening is dedicated to one artist and one artwork—not as a presentation to consume, but as a starting point for conversation. Together, we’ll explore the ideas, processes, questions and stories that surround a work, creating space for genuine exchange between artist and audience.

There is something powerful about giving one work our full attention. Looking longer. Listening more carefully. Being present.

The series begins in one week.

Mark your August calendar:

13 August — Victoria Gong
20 August — Kai-Hsuan Chang
27 August — Georgina Lowbridge

We hope you’ll join us as we rediscover what happens when we simply spend time with art.

One Artist. One Work. One Wall. Congrats to the First 10


Beginning Thursday 13 August, we’re inviting you to spend an evening with a single work of art and the artist who made it.

Join us every Thursday at 7pm as we welcome ten artists over ten weeks.

The conversation begins with Victoria Gong on 13 August.

No booking required. Everyone is welcome.
