SUMMARY:HEIST at SET Woolwich
DESCRIPTION:PV: 28th September 6-10pm (during 𝗦𝗘𝗧 𝗪𝗼𝗼𝗹𝘄𝗶𝗰𝗵 𝗢𝗽𝗲𝗻 𝗦𝘁𝘂𝗱𝗶𝗼𝘀) \n\n\n\nOpen: 29 Sept – 28 Oct by appointment – Contact mp.marta.paula@gmail.com for appointments. \n\n\n\nThe collective @disrupting_mythologies presents 𝗛𝗲𝗶𝘀𝘁. An exhibition of 18 artists curated by @martapaulamp and @interst3llars. \n\n\n\n“Exploring mythologies with a raucous edge\, the collective beliefs surrounding verbal and visual narratives persist as motifs that explain humankind’s existential conditions. Yet\, a modern awareness has us pestering the boundaries of folklore and iconography\, clattering against the veneer of these symbols. This results in a reinterpretation of these meanings\, brimming with riotous perceptions and offering a distorted lens on how they have evolved within our contemporary society.”

SUMMARY:Anatomy of a Soaring Lion
DESCRIPTION:PV: Thursday 7 November\, 6-10pmExhibition open: Friday 8 November – Wednesday 13 November\, 12pm – 5pm each day.Curated by the artists Gabrielle Bejani @goublou and Lucinda Purkis @kingkingstringball442 \n\n\n\n“don’t tell me it wasthe wind!” Frank shouts \n\n\n\n“THAT TREEWAVEDAT ME!”The Book of Frank [“don’t tell me it was”] by CAConrad \n\n\n\nAnatomy of a Soaring Lion is a two-person show by Gabrielle Bejani and Lucinda Purkis\, presenting a series of new\, multi-disciplinary collages incorporating delicate papers\, textiles\, procion-dyed and ink-painted fabric\, and plant matter. These works serve as windows into both artists’ imaginative worlds. \n\n\n\nThe latest of Bejani and Purkis’s long-term collaborations\, Anatomy of a Soaring Lion explores the spirit of play in their work through a synthesis of folklore\, mythology\, and memory. Both artists approach making from a place of heightened vulnerability and work to complexify this initial rawness through the multilayered quality of their pieces. They seek to highlight the intricacies of fleeting psychological states\, and infuse their works with a palette of rich\, vibrant colours and fragmented avatars that translate into landscapes of feeling\, forming a generative space for the viewer to explore.

SUMMARY:Scritch Scritch Scratch
DESCRIPTION:Please note this exhibition is open by appointment. \n\n\n\n\nScritch Scritch Scratch \n\n\n\nDaphne de SonnevilleMarc Fleming feat. HankCarl GentJessa Mockridge \n\n\n\nPV with performances: Saturday 23 November\, 6–10pmExhibition open: Thursday 21 November – Sunday 1 December\, 12–5pm by appointment \n\n\n\nBrushing\, rubbing\, scraping and scratching generate sounds of resistance\, of two materials working against\, on or with each other\, in a repetitive motion. Within the generative constraint of repetition lies queer failure: the goingagainstness of imposed values\, function and purpose — even the finitude of time. Stuckness proposes an archive of repeating embodied gestures\, hair clings to sculpture\, and looping may be a freeing movement.  \n\n\n\nScritch Scritch Scratch is a group exhibition organised by three SET members — Daphne de Sonneville\, Marc Fleming and Carl Gent — and invited artists Jessa Mockridge and Henry Palmer. Featuring works built on brushing\, rubbing\, scraping and scratching\, the exhibition explores material gestures as resistance in varying ecologies: the SET studio building\, an institutional library\, a museum collection\, a free party/night club\, and and and and and and and and and a cow field.  \n\n\n\nScratching is indulgent: a moment to let go and surrender to an urge. If you scratch an itchy bite\, it gets itchier! Scratching is resistant: a scraping\, or marking\, maps desire lines against the grain. \n\n\n\nBarely even scratching the surface proposes there is more to do. Scratch your name into a toilet cubicle door. Scratching holds asymmetries\, but the gunk beneath your fingernails sings of how materials touch you back. A fidget in your pocket is a tool for stimming. A scratch track in music recording is a template\, a guide; it provides the beat and tempo\, even as it will be erased later. Scratch that. Scratch out. Scratching a record materialises new sonic possibilities. The works explore what happens when rubbing defeats\, contaminates\, antagonises or reinterprets language\, and thereby produces a sound — looping into infinity.  \n\n\n\nA matted tapestry of cow-fur clings between studded nails on a concrete W; a mass of dull human hair and dust wool winds around a book trolley wheel; a speaker is moulded from sounding sinewy plant matter; lime dirt wool soap Christmas pudding cow shit\, caked and cracking on hands and forearms as a dead woman performs opportunistic reputational revenge against her dead lover’s dead enemy — we scratch indelibly at the otherwise pristine plaque. \n\n\n\nWith support from the Exhibitions Hub\, Department of Art\, Goldsmiths College.

SUMMARY:BOUY'D
DESCRIPTION:BUOY’D – SET LewishamPV: 28th November 6-9pmOpen: 29th Nov-7th Dec – 10-6pm \n\n\n\nThis two-person exhibition is dedicated to material investigations of systems teetering on the edge of collapse. \n\n\n\nFlorence’s work explore digital snowballing\, mirror worlds\, digital twins\, half-truths and black swan events. Her work is a frenetically material investigation of apocalypse and the end of the world.  \n\n\n\nEleanor has been trying to make a system that feeds itself. Her work deals with a system where a lot of things don’t function properly and are creating images that are wrong. Interested in wet feedback loops\, she uses interwoven analogue and digital processes that record themselves as they operate\, creating a leaky systemisation that operates through DIY weather monitoring systems.

SUMMARY:900931
DESCRIPTION:900931Private View: Thursday\, February 6 | 6-9 pmExhibition Open: February 7-14 | 12-6 pmWhat happens when human bodies are no longer conditioned to exist in the real world? The 900931 brain device was conceived as an solution to this question – a speculative intervention designed to reintegrate post digital bodies into physical existence. In a time where prolonged immersion in virtual environments erodes mobility\, sensory perception\, and interpersonal connection\, this device proposes a staged return to reality. \n\n\n\nInspired by early interactive devices like Tamagotchi and Digivice\, the 900931 requires physical interaction to activate and grow. It doesn’t function alone; it relies on bodily movement\, environmental response\, and human connection. \n\n\n\nThe exhibition showcases this process through six handcrafted models\, ‘eAves’\, fictional entities undergoing rehabilitation to restore their atrophied bodies for real-world function. Through muscle reactivation\, sensory recalibration\, and environmental interaction\, they move from digital sedation to tangible reality. \n\n\n\nBy exploring speculative design\, the 900931 asks if technology can bridge the gap between our bodies and the increasingly disconnected world. Can design restore the value of human presence in a digital age? Visitors are invited to reflect on these questions and witness a speculative future where re-embodiment becomes a radical act of adaptation.

John Major’s Criminal Justice and Public Order Act has plummeted young\, disenfranchised brits into a new political landscape. A 31 year old\, Keith D. Gerald\, is preparing to perform at Lewisham’s infamous ‘Manifest’ club. Little did he know he was going to ignite the most defining moment in the history of music’. \n\n\n\n‘Hardcore Uproar’ is an exhibition exploring the historical music movement of S.O.R.B (succession of repetitive beats) revolving around one era changing night in 1996. The show includes first person accounts\, protest posters and rave flyers that led to The Public Enforcement of Sonic Restriction Act effectively banning music. Looking at the political climate and illegal rave culture from the 90s to modern day\, we’ve been given special government permission to play chosen music outside of state mandated times. \n\n\n\nHardcore Uproar invites you to relive a pivotal moment in music history—where rebellion met rhythm and reshaped a generation. With rare permission to break state-enforced silence\, this is your chance to experience the soundscape of resistance like never before.

SUMMARY:FORESHORE
DESCRIPTION:FORESHORE: SET Woolwich \n\n\n\nOpening Night: 10th April 6-10pm \n\n\n\nOpening Times: 11th-27th April 12-5pm \n\n\n\nFORESHORE is a group exhibition showing a multitude of works which explore personal and collective connections to bodies of water and the central lifeline of our city: the River Thames.  \n\n\n\nThrough expansive mediums\, the artists concoct a series of homages to the river\, delving into its rich history\, materiality and symbolism.  \n\n\n\nAs well as examining the Thames foreshore as a site of social and political significance; the exhibition considers its tributaries as liminal spaces to roam\, for reflection and creation – water is explored viscerally through ritual and alchemy.  \n\n\n\nThe breadth of responses invites us to see our city’s river – its tides\, banks and surroundings areas – as a space we collectively own\, for which we have a duty of care\, to protect and honour\, and acknowledge those for whom it flowed before and the future mudlarks\, wanderers and admirers.  \n\n\n\nWoolwich is an area saturated with industrial history and ties to the river. FORESHORE will take place overlooking the Thames\, a view increasingly shrouded by the continual construction of new developments. Developers have an increasing monopoly on the riverside landscape. We hope this show will celebrate the real depth and breadth of the Thames and it’s history and future as a space for memory\, joy\, resistance\, creation and contemplation. ‘

SUMMARY:Project Stage
DESCRIPTION:“This isn’t background noise❗ \n\n\n\nIt’s the main act — and it happens only once. \n\n\n\nOn May 9\, 6PM–9 PM \n\n\n\nLive performances take over the space — unfolding in rhythm\, light\, sound\, and presence. \n\n\n\nWhat sets dramatic performances\, films\, and visual art exhibitions apart? \n\n\n\nVisual art exhibitions offer freedom—you can wander\, pause\, skip. But works are passively displayed\, like objects in a room. Despite their diversity\, a distance grows between viewer and artwork. The creative impulse—whether spontaneous or deeply researched—often fades in the static setting. \n\n\n\nStarting from this observation\, we conceived the idea of Project Stage—a project that evolves over time. what happens when sound\, light\, moving images\, installations\, and live performances are activated sequentially\, like scenes in a theater—within the context of an exhibition space? \n\n\n\nThis is the question Project Stage seeks to explore. Through a series of timed activations\, shifting atmospheres\, and evolving spatial arrangements\, we treat the exhibition space not as a static container but as a temporal stage. \n\n\n\nAfter that? \n\n\n\nFrom May 10 to 30  \n\n\n\nMonday to Friday 12PM to 6PM \n\n\n\nWorkshops\, screenings\, fragments coming soon.” \n\n\n\nArtist: \n\n\n\nAbbie Coombs @abbie_coombs_\, Fan Bangyu @fan_bangyu\, Jorge Jobim  @jor.graphy\, Liangqi Yao @liangqibabe\, Miya Kosowick Mawatari @miyakmawatari\, Roman Sheppard Dawson @romanshepdaw\, Sarah Duffy @sarahcduffy\, Sara Sternberg @merda_seca\, Joe Smith @joepeter.sm \n\n\n\nAlso featured are sound artists: \n\n\n\nEngin Eskici @dj_baklava\, Hamish Ford\, Henry Glover @hgglover \, Xiaowan Yi @jazzy_yi\, Xixi Wang @xixiwang_2024 \n\n\n\nCurator: \n\n\n\nMengmeng Luo @modalism12138\, karl Xinghao Liang @liangxinghao48 \n\n\n\nThe exhibition is organised by new arts group The Afterpiece.

SUMMARY:Altogether Without - Group Exhibition at SET Lewisham
DESCRIPTION:Altogether Without opens at SET Lewisham on 16 October 6-9pm.  \n\n\n\nBringing together photographic works\, projected video and light installations in a darkened space\, Altogether Without stages an encounter with the (in)discernable gap between the still and the moving image. Through a play between darkness and light\, the show seeks to shift and trouble perceptions of duration and the ephemeral. \n\n\n\nExhibition details\n\n\n\nPrivate view: 16 October 6-9pmPublic exhibition dates: 16 October – 8 NovemberTimes: Friday 3-7pm\, Saturday and Sunday 12-6pmLocation: SET Lewisham\, Unit 1\, Lewisham Retail Park\, Loampit Vale\, London SE13 7RZTickets: Free entry. No need for appointments. \n\n\n\nArtists include: \n\n\n\nKit Derbyshire  @kitd._Sofia Gil de Biedma  @sofia.gildebiedmaJack Jeffreys @jack.zevSylvain LarrièreEric MargolisDaniela María & Kit Rimmer @daniela9maria  @kitrimmerJunko Theresa MikuriyaOttilie Winfield Wilenski @ot_rt_ \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nClosing Event – short film screening\n\n\n\nThe exhibition will conclude with a special screening of 16mm short films\, co-curated with Cici Peng. The programme is centred on the work of filmmaker Tomonari Nishikawa\, who passed away in April of this year\, celebrating his playful experiments with 16mm film. \n\n\n\nThe screening includes Nishikawa’s Tokyo Ebisu/Shibuya duology\, featuring in-camera visual effects capturing Tokyo’s busiest metro line\, alongside Sound of a Million Insects\, Light of a Thousand Stars\, in which Nishikawa buried a 100ft roll of Tungsten film beneath fallen leaves near the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant from sunset until sunrise. Through this methodical approach\, chance emerges within his structured cityscapes as traces of light\, commuters\, and cars appear as unexpected surprises. \n\n\n\nAlso included is Vincent Grenier’s Time’s Wake (Once Removed). Grenier\, a colleague of Nishikawa at Binghamton University\, describes his film as “a strange contradiction between liveliness and frozenness.” Using home movie footage and an earlier\, unseen version of his film\, Grenier constructs an “endearing but removed artefact” of personal memory\, highlighting the nature of the image as “altogether outside\, without intimacy\, and yet more accessible and mysterious than the thought of the innermost being” (Maurice Blanchot). \n\n\n\nA surprise film will also be announced before the screening begins. \n\n\n\nEntry: £5 / Free drinks provided / Contactless or cash payment on the door. \n\n\n\nScreening Programme \n\n\n\n\nSound of a Million Insects\, Light of a Thousand Stars | 2014 | 2 min | Tomonari Nishikawa\n\n\n\nTokyo – Ebisu | 2010 | 5 min | Tomonari Nishikawa\n\n\n\nShibuya – Tokyo | 2010 | 10 min | Tomonari Nishikawa\n\n\n\nTime’s Wake (Once Removed) | 1987 | 12 min | Vincent Grenier\n\n\n\nSurprise film | TBC

SUMMARY:The Upper Matrix of Human Error - Exhibition at SET Lewisham
DESCRIPTION:The Upper Matrix of Human Error opens at SET Lewisham on 13 November\, 6-9pm. \n\n\n\nBringing together new works by Associate Members\, Peter McNelis and Charlie Fogg\, the exhibition explores communication\, paranoia\, and power within the structures that shape digital and social life. \n\n\n\nFogg’s films dissect the mechanics of speech and narrative in digital spaces\, manipulating both filmic and verbal language to expose how meaning slips even as it’s being constructed. His fragmented scripts and narrators—whether real or artificial—highlight the instability of communication\, particularly when filtered through systems designed to distort and replicate. \n\n\n\nMcNelis’ film\, drawing\, textual\, and sculptural works are structured around performances of legal and social contracts\, and the fictions that underpin them. \n\n\n\nTogether\, their works critique the technologies and networks of power that govern contemporary visual culture. Rather than dismissing those caught within conspiratorial or paranoid thinking\, they explore how such ideologies emerge from systems of alienation and control. \n\n\n\nParanoia becomes a defining condition of both production and spectatorship\, and yet\, within the texts and images they sample\, the artists uncover traces of humanity; in the awkward politeness of British speech\, the familiar banality of work and consumption\, and in moments of humour. \n\n\n\nExhibition details\n\n\n\nPrivate view: 13 November\, 6–9pmExhibition dates: 13-25 NovemberTimes: Wednesday-Friday\, 4.30–8pm; Saturday-Sunday\, 12-6pmLocation: SET Lewisham\, Unit 1\, Lewisham Retail Park\, Loampit Vale\, London SE13 7RZTickets: Free entry. No need for appointments. \n\n\n\nThis exhibition is realised with support from the Exhibitions Hub\, Department of Art\, Goldsmiths College. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArtists Peter McNelis @l15.pmcne Peter McNelis (b. Newcastle Upon Tyne\, 2000) makes work concerned with internal structures of ideology and nationhood\, and the naive actors who perform and make them external. He received a BA in Fine Art and History of Art from Goldsmiths in 2023.Charlie Fogg @charlienewfbfogg Charlie Fogg (b. Newcastle Upon Tyne\, 2000) works primarily with digital moving- image. His works interrogate narrative forms\, exploring themes of the post-internet condition and its effect on everyday life. He received a BA in Fine Art from Manchester School of Art.

SUMMARY:A Coral Reef - Exhibition at SET Lewisham
DESCRIPTION:SET is delighted to present A Coral Reef\, a new exhibition\, opening at SET Lewisham on 4 December\, 6-9pm.Bringing together new drawings\, paintings\, and sculptural works by artists and SET Associate Members Aidan Quinn and Hallam Wood\, the exhibition explores fragility\, connection\, and the unstable systems that bind living things together.Quinn (@maggot.kingdom) makes drawings and sculptures that reflect on the strangeness of living in a collapsing\, disorienting world. His works begin with fragments—archival images\, scraps of text\, or simple patterns—which are redrawn\, layered\, and tiled until their origins blur and new connections emerge. \n\n\n\nWood (@hallamtwood) works between painting\, drawing\, and occasional sculpture\, guided by the belief that all matter is connected. From this open-ended premise\, he aims to realign the pedestrian elements of life. His recent paintings use looping lines to form links between objects and organisms. \n\n\n\nExhibition details\n\n\n\nPrivate view: Thursday 4 December\, 6–9pmExhibition dates: 5-7 December\, 12–5pmAdditional viewings: 8-19 DecemberVenue: SET Lewisham\, Lewisham Retail Park\, SE13 7RZAdmission: Free entry\, by appointment

SUMMARY:The World Shakes Out Her Sheets - SET 91 Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:The World Shakes Out Her Sheets is SET 91’s fifth and penultimate exhibition within its six-month curated programme. Curated by Isobel Harper\, the exhibition brings works by Nicola Organ\, Rhian Harris-Mussi\, Kes Wilkie\, and Freddie Wise\, presented in dialogue with a commissioned text by artist and writer Sophie Wright. \n\n\n\nBringing together practices that reflect on landscape\, environment and speculative forms of world-building\, the exhibition explores how image\, text and material intersect. Seen through panes of engraved glass etched with fragments of Wright’s text in Harper’s distinctive letterform\, the works shift with light and shadow\, inviting viewers to move between looking and reading. \n\n\n\nAbout the exhibition\n\n\n\nThe World Shakes Out Her Sheets brings together works by four artists whose practices are united by processes of uncanny world-building. Across the exhibition\, there is a shared sense of play with space\, perspective and scale\, unsettling familiar worlds and translating them into disquieting visual languages. Human systems\, structures and machinery appear alongside strange natural phenomena\, suggesting environments that hover somewhere between science fiction and the otherworldly.  \n\n\n\nAt the centre of the exhibition is Wright’s commissioned text\, written in response to a conversation that reflected on the shared sensibility running through the four practices. Rather than offering explanation\, Wright’s text functions as a kind of poetic distillation\, drawing out the common threads of estrangement\, curiosity\, and speculative possibility. Etched into the glass that frames each work\, the text becomes a material presence that subtly reconfigures perception through light and shadow.  \n\n\n\nText\, glass and image form a layered encounter in which meaning is continually deferred and reshaped. The exhibition proposes the engraved glass as a conscious lens – one that mediates the relationship between viewer and artwork\, while inviting an attentive navigation of these strange and mystical worlds. In doing so\, The World Shakes Out Her Sheets proposes a way of looking that is open to uncertainty\, and to the possibility that these works may be addressed not only to human viewers\, but to something beyond us.  \n\n\n\nDetails\n\n\n\nPublic opening event: Friday 16 January\, 6-9pm Dates: 17 January – 1 February Gallery hours: Thursday – Sunday\, 1-6pm Location: 91 Tabernacle Street\, Old Street\, London\, EC2A 4JNAdmission: Free \n\n\n\nPoster design: Callum Bridge (@ellery3000)
