Field Works: a Trellis exhibition

Free exhibition from 16 March - 1 April 2024 at Hoxton Hall, N1 6SH

Art + Community: Collaborative Commissions from UCL Research.

Hoxton Hall is host to Field Works: an exhibition of six artist installations. Developed over a year, the artworks are the results of investigation, collaboration, thinking and playing between east London artists, UCL researchers and communities of people in east London.

Honest and uncomfortable, Field Works probes at the premise that the urban environment is a ready sphere for inequality. But what does this mean? Through their work together, the groups have begun to develop methodologies that work towards an ultimately optimistic reading of the city. They have found humour and tenderness in human connection. 

Field Works is curated by Rosie Murdoch and we are delighted to be partnering with Hoxton Hall as host for the exhibition.

MEET THE EXHIBITORS

Unbuilt Environments is a digital installation that acts as an  area for expression, protest, and prototyping by disabled people  

Women Walk East is an enquiry into women’s orientation in the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park and considers how and where they map their own place(s) and routes in this distinctive, regenerated urban terrain.

 Along the Lane builds a sensory experience out of the flow of memory, culture and social histories within the East End of London. 


Public Powers is an audio installation that considers the spaces we move through, unearthing who they are made for and the ways we can shape their future.

Fortuna is a devised verbatim performance, directed by Maxi Himpe and performed by young people in Hoxton Hall.

This project explores how we mark the ryhthm of nature's cycles, layering historical, ecological and horticultural knowledge from mediaeval times to today.


Trellis Young Producers

Also featured in the exhibition are six works created in response to the six artworks by young people from east London.

The Trellis team worked with Waltham Forest Council's Future Formed team to recruit, support and develop six young people over the three months before the Field Works exhibition.

Their work can be found in the bar area of Hoxton Hall.
