Visit Three Artists' Studios @ Gasworks

This is a rare opportunity to visit Three Women Artists in their studios to see their work in progress and hear their unique perspectives. We are delighted that the artists Anthea Hamilton, Tai Shani and Tania Pérez Córdova will open their studios for this special event.  Alessio Antoniolli, Director of Gasworks will give us an introduction to the programme and present the artists:
Anthea Hamilton works with a diverse array of found objects with fragmented elements of figurative sculpture created by means of her characteristic ‘cut-out’ technique.

Fantastic and cinematic are the only ways to describe Tai Shani’s performances and films that are abstracted adaptations of films, plays and books or fictional historical dramatisations.
Tania Pérez Córdova, a visiting artist from Mexico, claims her work happens between questioning how to make come thing and how to make sense of something.

All three women are part of the Gasworks residency programme. Gasworks is a contemporary arts organisation that houses under one roof artists’ studios combined with a programme of international artists’ residencies, exhibitions, talks, events and an extensive community focused learning programme. Over the last twenty years Gasworks has built a reputation for discovering and introducing new international and British talent to London. More than 300 artists from over 70 countries around the world have taken part in the Gasworks’ programmes. There will also be an opportunity to view the exhibition on display in the gallery – Mariam Jafry after the tour.
Tea, coffee, juice and a selection of pastries will be served.
