Details

Hypha Studios is pleased to present a new exhibition in Stratford entitled "MEMBRANES: Interactions and Intentions between Bodies, Biomes and Technologies." Curated by Dr. Jennifer Crouch, a renowned art-science practitioner, this exhibition showcases the works of six talented artists: Becky Lyon, Georgina Hopkin, Molly Bonnell, Fawziyah Rahman, Ella Justine Frost, and Jennifer Crouch herself. The MEMBRANES private view will take place at Hypha Studios, located at 50 Celebration Avenue, London, E20 1DW, on Thursday, February 29th, 2024, from 18:00 to 21:00. This extraordinary collection of painted, woven, film-based, and sculptural works explores the multifaceted nature of the human body. From atomic and molecular to cellular and organism levels, these artworks delve into the intricate relationships between individuals, communities, and ecosystems. The concept of "membranes" serves as a unifying thread throughout the exhibition, representing the interfaces or boundaries through which bodies interact and exchange materials. These works aim to shed light on our entanglements with one another and the natural world, emphasizing the interconnectedness of bio-geo-chemical cycles. MEMBRANES will not only be a static exhibition but also a dynamic experience. Throughout its tenure at Hypha Studios, the exhibition will evolve, hosting various experiments, workshops, and events. These activities will engage students, researchers, and the general public, facilitating meaningful interactions at the intersections of species, technologies, and environments. Hypha Studios, located at 50 Celebration Avenue, London, E20 1DW, proudly supports this exhibition. The MEMBRANES private view will be followed by an open period from March 1st to April 7th, 2024. Visitors are welcome from Tuesday to Sunday, between 12:00 and 18:00. Additionally, an events timetable featuring evening talks, workshops, and activities will be available.
