Cambridge Artworks & Artspace

This Saturday 15th August 5.30-10.30pm in Artspace - Threads: Memory Stored
Shreepali Patel, Jamie Comer & Sophie Kemmere

A few years ago, we locked ourselves in a photography studio with a suitcase full of saris, passed from mother to daughter to granddaughter. What emerged were a series of images that spoke to Paul Gilroy’s ‘a memory stored in safe keeping until a means of translation can be found’. This, we believe could become the source of new possibilities for the present and future generations to express our histories and memories through inherited fashion.

"Play, making, communication – this is what I do to ground myself in the present – which is all any of us have. ENDANGER (ed) is my ode to the power of lo-tech creativity.
I would love you to join the conversation…"

This weekend in Artspace is Mirrored Visions
Private view 31st July 6pm-8pm
Exhibition open 1st - 2nd August 10.30am-5.30pm

Mirrored Visions is a group exhibition that celebrates the creative journey of the artist and educator Maria Di Gaetano Maria Di Gaetano and her adult art community, marking the fact that art is for everyone, and if listened to, it can become a ray of sunshine that lets us heal from the personal and global grey times we are experiencing.
Every piece in the room is a reflection, not just of technical skill and dedication, but of the diverse life experiences, stories, and perspectives our artists bring to the canvas when responding to some of these four themes: Home, Contrast, Seasonal Changes and Reflection.

For an adult learner, creating art requires a unique kind of courage. It asks us to slow down, look inward, and share our vision with the world. This exhibition is a celebration of this courage.
