Gig in the gallery - Thursday 12th June

The first event will take place on Thursday 12th June with performances by:

Preview: Delaine Le Bas +Fabricating My Own Myth – Red Threads & Silver Needles
Please join us for the preview of +Fabricating My Own Myth – Red Threads & Silver Needles by Delaine Le Bas.
It is free to attend and open to all.
The event will include a live performance by Le Bas with long-term collaborator Hḗrā Santos, centring on two monumental silver needles that move through the space as tools of both repair and disruption. In this choreographed encounter between body, object, and environment, the artists thread their way through the installation—stitching together fragments of myth and lived experience. Part ritual, part intervention, the performance embodies the tensions and dualities that run throughout Le Bas’ practice: visibility and erasure, truth and invention, tradition and transformation.
The performance will start at 7pm.
