21/08/2024

Announcing the first of 3 events, celebrating our first birthday in Stockport:

25KG ALTAR
A solo exhibition by Ben Barbetta Thompson

Opening Saturday 14 September 6 — 10pm

Live soundtrack by
Drinks continue at

25KG ALTAR is a presentation of power. A bearing of weight, slipping through fingers. When the ink cracks, what shows through the stains. Held in place by pure will, forced to fall, inevitable. As the light fades through the windows of a converted office block, filled with one year’s obsession, are you reminded of evening mass? A ritual regurgitated from memory through the gaping mouth of modernity, like a printer forcing sheets, losing power.

On view 14 — 29 September 2024

EBELTOFT

On Thursday I made the crazy decision to travel outside of Aarhus and visit the beautiful small town of Ebeltoft. Crazy because I decided to do the 3+ hour journey there on a bike…

I went up there to visit & a fabulous cultural centre at the heart of this coastal town. The space, resources and overall support they receive is incredible and spurs me on to push the boundaries of what is capable of.

The highlight of the visit was hearing the current artists in residence talk about their work and how their stay in Ebeltoft had influenced their work. Thank you & for the insights into both your practices!

A very short but sweet trip but this town has certainly left its mark on my thinking! 24 hours, 96km and one LUXURY sea view room (sometimes life knows when to throw you a free upgrade…)

To be continued, Ebeltoft!

P.s for you cycling enthusiasts out there, swipe to the end to see what I stupidly navigated the route and rolling hills on…

UPCOMING EXHIBITION

This week we begin install for TESTAMENT, a group show hosted by and featuring Maeve Thompson, Victoria Mehr & Bertie (bear) Thomas.

TESTAMENT crosses territories of memory, folk histories and sentimentality; with an emphasis on individual practices rooted in woodwork, casting and textile. The selected works are an ode to the once familiar corners of childhood homes, a tribute to sworn secrets, and traded stickers; a song for the passing places of country lanes, and the bolder optimists staring directly into the sun.

Join us on Wednesday 1st May from 6-9pm for the launch; then the exhibition continues by appointment until 7th May.

For more information, or to schedule an appointment you can get in touch via [email protected]

24/03/2024

We’ve got a little May Bank Holiday treat in store for you all courtesy of Handbook in Motion.

Join us on 27th May from 7pm-10pm for Tara Clerkin Trio (live)

Tara Clerkin Trio are Pat Benjamin, Sunny Joe Paradisos and Tara Clerkin, three musicians involved in a number of cult Bristol bands over the years before confidently settling down in triangle formation. They are inspired by and borrow from jazz, trip hop, electronica, psychedelia & minimalism, twirling the non-pretentious strands of these threads together into a trippy green winged-cloak, adorning Arthur Russell and dripping in blue jam.

Also joining us on the evening will be: Puma (DJ) spinning Latin American & influenced sounds - expect vintage Salsa, Cumbia, Mambo; as well as Handbook in Motion resident DJ, Josh Lentink.

Tickets are available via the link in our bio - - go go go!

UPCOMING EVENT

February is shaping up to be a busy one for us! We’ve just added another event to our calendar, this one is super limited so grab your free tickets whilst your can! 🤍🎟️

Join us on Thursday 29th February from 6pm-9pm for Method Over Matter, an expanded film performance by artist Jenny Baines.

As part of the project New Arrangements, artist Jenny Baines will be presenting a new body of work as an expanded film performance, which incorporates a series of 16mm film loops projected onto free-standing structures. The works’ arrangement creates different rhythms and patterns of movement, through which the audience can freely move. In each of the 16mm films the artist performs a physical action, which collectively explore the relationship between the body, screen and space.

Tickets are FREE but limited so head to the link in our bio to grab yours!

ABOUT NEW ARRANGEMENTS

New Arrangements is a collaborative project initiated by artists Jenny Baines and Anna Macdonald. It brings the two artists’ practices into contact for the first time, aiming to explore the creative potential of working in-situ with another person through active processes of thinking and making.

New Arrangements departs from the artists’ synchronous use of choreographic, pared back statements to explore the durational qualities of the body as material and film as document. Baines’ work takes the form of performance for camera, whilst Macdonald’s operates within screendance. Both artists explore the relationship of the body, screen and space and how this is navigated through the production and display of their work. New Arrangements serves to collapse the barriers between sculptural form, film and dance making. Interweaving layers of relation, creation, and a process of ‘working things out’ through doing, arranging and rearranging.

And so it begins…

Yesterday we picked up the keys to our new floor!!

We can’t quite believe that we’ve already got to a stage in which we need to expand, but it’s happened and we’re leaning in.

We’ve begun welcoming in the new studio holders who will be calling this floor home, and from today will begin refurbing this space as well as planning some very exciting events to activists it!

You might be sick of us saying this, but our Crowdfunder is still on the go and we NEED your support.

is currently completely self-funded, so to make this ambition a reality we need to raise up to £10,000 🤍

There’s just over 3 weeks left on our Crowdfunder, so if you haven’t had chance to explore the different rewards and artworks available, please head over and support us in any way you can!

NEW YEAR, NEW EDITION

We are DELIGHTED to share with you an exclusive enamel pin badge designed by artist that is now available as part of our ongoing Crowdfunder campaign!

LIAM FALLON
‘Untitled’ - 2023
Enamel pin badge
£15 (inc P&P)
*Edition of 250

Initially inspired by Jean Genet’s ‘Un Chant D’amour’, the brick wall has become a recognisable trope and motif of Liam’s Practice, with this architectural facade acting as a separation between private and public but also acting as the setting for things to unfold. At a first glance, this seems reminiscent of things encountered before but there is a false facade at play and quickly, as the reality begins to unfold and these things begin to theatrically perform.

You can find the link to our Crowdfunder below, but if you have any questions about this, or any of the other available works, please feel free to get in touch via [email protected]

https://www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/pink-new-space

So, what are you waiting for? Go get yours!

20/12/2023
