“Step inside The Island this May for a dynamic collaborative exhibition showcasing new work from second-year Boomsatsuma UAL Art and Design/Photography pathway students.”
From: Boomsatsuma x UAL Art and Photography @ The Island - Gallery

“Through creative, body-based explorations and gentle reflection, you will be guided to listen to your own body as an energising resource - exploring ideas in the exhibition and connecting with ourselves.”

“Hannah and Kamina have been writing to each other about age since 2023, when Kamina turned 60, and Hannah turned 35. They have been bringing this text into the studio, using it to develop a shared improvised movement practice. Hannah moves whilst Kamina reads Hannah's text, Kamina moves whilst Hannah reads Kamina's text. They are delighted to share this work-in-progress performance piece on women and age, alongside Emma Talbot's exhibition.”

“Her exhibition will provide interesting spaces to move through, with sculpture that dancers can interact with, touch and wear. Encouraging exploration of how this influences the way that dancers move and connect with each other.”
