SUMMARY:We are Commoners: Meet the Artist
DESCRIPTION:This event is organised by Resurgence. Please follow the link to their website for booking and more info. \nA talk about Nature as a ‘commons’ with Common Agency Projects artist Shane Waltener including a communal making activity and Q&A. \nCommon Agency Projects formed as a collaborative practice between artists Shane Waltener and Laura Glaser in response to our ‘We Are Commoners’ exhibition. They merge interests and experience in visual arts\, dance and performance. During lockdown in 2020 they met weekly in parks and common spaces\, experiencing the function of these spaces as new forums\, cultural centres or theatres of the pandemic. Through observation\, movement improvisation and play\, the artists developed and rehearsed making and performance scores addressing the idea of Nature as a ‘commons’. Their interactions embrace the weather\, the seasons\, the site and all that grows in it. These ‘commoning’ actions are recorded to discuss with each other and interested park-goers. \n“On so many levels\, including personal and political\, and for all of us\, Nature and the environment are our remaining and shared common language” – Sean Swallow \nThe communal making activity\, inspired by Sean Swallow’s quote\, will be guided by Shane and involve attendees interpreting one of Common Agency Project’s written performance scores. The actions will prompt you to think about your locality and where Nature is to be found within it; what Nature means to you; the agency and transformative potential of materials in your environment; and the notion of ‘working with’ Nature. \nJoin Shane & Deirdre for a Q&A with Resurgence and Ecologist magazine editor Marianne Brown. \nBook your place at resurgenceevents.org \nThe event takes place online\, via Zoom.

SUMMARY:Queer + Metals Exhibition at the Ferrous Festival
DESCRIPTION:Queer + Metals exhibition at the Ferrous Festival \nA Craftspace exhibition co-curated by Dauvit Alexander and Deirdre Figueiredo in collaboration with Rebekah Frank. \nThe exhibition and digital residency with Rebekah Frank explores the multiplicity of queerness in relation to metalwork and metalsmithing. Whether as identities\, lived experiences\, thinking\, cultures\, aesthetics\, influences\, stories\, places and imagination. Viewed together in this context\, the artworks can be seen as an act of resistance. The exhibition is a means to empower\, affirm and express solidarity between LGBTQIA+ creatives\, making visible the ways they are shaping\, disrupting and contributing to contemporary craft and design practices. Rather than provide answers or fixed ideas\, it seeks to open up possibilities and make connections within a diverse\, intersectional\, complex and fluid community of making. \nWe respect that for some within our community ‘queer’ is still associated with oppression whilst others are strongly reclaiming it as a liberating non-binary collective term. \nUK artists are represented physically in the exhibition\, whilst international artists who participated in Rebekah Frank’s digital residency are represented through an Instagram campaign and video interviews. The Queer + Metals project has included practitioners at different stages of their careers from a wide variety of backgrounds\, many of whom have practices as intersectional as their lives. There are blacksmiths\, sculptors\, jewellers\, farriers\, welders\, machinists\, activists and performers. \nDauvit\, Deirdre and Rebekah identify as LGBTQ+ as part of their intersectional identities\, making this project a personal and collective endeavour. We are proud to occupy public space in presenting this work. It provides the opportunity for a wider audience to become more aware of diverse cultures and for LGBTQIA+ visitors to feel included. \nThe exhibition is open from 11am – 4pm.

SUMMARY:Make a Zine (SHOUT x CRAFTSPACE)
DESCRIPTION:“Make a Zine” is a craft workshop developed by Craftspace for the SHOUT 2021 Festival. \nBook online via Eventbrite. \n\n\n\n\n\nSHOUT invite you to participate in an upcoming FREE workshop that supports intergenerational conversations within our community. This event is part of SHOUT’s efforts to develop a platform that focuses on bringing together people of different ages to share their life stories and is supported by Ageing Better LGBT Hub. \n\n\n“Make a Zine” was originally designed by Craftspace and artist Seleena Laverne Daye for the Making for Change project. Zine-making is a widely appealing and accessible format often used for talking about identity. It incorporates writing\, drawing\, collage and stitch with the aim to develop a way to visually communicate one’s story and one’s experience. To see the previous iteration of the workshop click HERE. \nThroughout this workshop\, you will have a chance to make a Zine while sharing and talking about your experiences of the commonalities and differences in relation to the social and political changes that are affecting our LGBTQ+ community. \nThe Zines you create will be displayed in the Birmingham LGBT Centre. \nThis activity will be led by Jacob Monk who is a Lancashire born hand-weaver and textile artist now based in London. Jacob’s design process celebrates the history and craftsmanship that goes into making an ikat fabric\, whilst using contrasting colour combinations to create contemporary artworks. \nThe event will take place at Birmingham LGBT Centre on 23rd October 2021 between 1:00 pm and 3:30 pm. \nThere is a limited amount of spaces available; make sure you book your ticket before attending! \nBook online via Eventbrite. \n
