SUMMARY:Life Drawing is in Fashion with Peckham Life Drawing
DESCRIPTION:Peckham Life Drawing invites participants to explore creative approaches to life drawing that go beyond traditional techniques. Each session centres the model not only as a subject to be drawn\, but as a collaborator\, bringing their own experience as artists and performers into the space. \n\n\n\nRather than focusing solely on still poses\, each session experiments with process and structure. Past sessions have explored drawing imagined fashion alongside the model\, working with mirrored poses to think about embodiment\, and celebrating bodies in their varied forms. The focus is on curiosity\, responsiveness\, and drawing as a shared\, creative act. \n\n\n\nMaterials are provided and sessions are open to all abilities. Drawing tips are available for anyone who wants them\, and participants are always welcome to bring their own materials. Please note that sessions often include nudity\, and are therefore open to participants aged 18+ only. \n\n\n\nThere will be a short break during the session\, with drinks available at the bar. \n\n\n\nEvent details\n\n\n\nDate: Wednesday 28 JanuaryTime: 7-9pm (with a break)Tickets: £12 (plus booking fee)\, available via Eventbrite \n\n\n\nBook tickets\n\n\n\nAbout the organiser: \n\n\n\nThese sessions are hosted by Peckham Life Drawing\, a project that curates inclusive life drawing events designed to bring people together through creative collaboration. \n\n\n\nThe sessions are facilitated by Peckham-based artist Lucie Russell (MA RCA)\, whose practice explores collective making and experimental approaches to drawing. \n\n\n\nFollow along on Instagram at @peckham.LifeDrawing

SUMMARY:Anti-colonial Reading Group
DESCRIPTION:How are colonial histories and environmental crises connected? And what might ecology look like when thought through decolonial struggle?The Anticolonial Reading Group returns for a new series of sessions exploring ecology through an anticolonial lens. Building on previous sessions that explored foundational anticolonial thinkers such as Frantz Fanon and Walter Rodney\, the cycle will focus on Malcolm Ferdinand’s groundbreaking book Decolonial Ecology: Thinking from the Caribbean World (2022). \n\n\n\nAcross sessions running from October to February\, the group will read and discuss Ferdinand’s work\, which brings together environmental justice and decolonial thought. Drawing on Caribbean histories\, the book examines how ecological crises are inseparable from the legacies of colonialism\, slavery\, and racial capitalism. \n\n\n\nTogether\, participants will explore questions such as: what does it mean to imagine liberation as an ecological project\, and ecology as a decolonial struggle? How might we work toward a “world in common” grounded in justice\, care\, and collective survival for humans\, non-humans\, and the environment alike? \n\n\n\nThe reading group is open to all. Participants from gendered and racialised minorities\, as well as those from decolonial backgrounds\, are especially encouraged to take part. \n\n\n\nIf you face barriers to purchasing the book\, please email kangamotema@proton.me  \n\n\n\nEvent details\n\n\n\nDates: 5 October-21 February. See reading schedule below for more details.Time: 2-4pmTickets: Free \n\n\n\nReading schedule\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPoster designs: Jean-Micheal @jm.btr

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)

Alongside my current technical and teaching roles across independent ceramic studios and Central Saint Martins\, I run experimental workshops that blur the boundaries between making\, movement\, and performance—inviting participants to engage clay through sensation and play. My approach merges technical foundation with intuitive exploration. Recent work has been shown at VFD\, Pocko Gallery\, and Ugly Duck. I’m currently based at Tannery Arts\, Bermondsey. \n\n\n\nTo see Lauren’s work head to: laurenmcnicoll.com \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout SET Ceramics\n\n\n\nSET Ceramics is a new community ceramics studio in a former Key Cutters and Cobblers.

He is interested in skeletons in closets\, as much as closeted skeletons. \n\n\n\nFrancisco’s work takes shape through questions of queer practice\, auto-ethnography and transhumanism. He borrows the language of ceramic relics\, fashion phenomena and pop symbols to investigate history as a material – one that’s not inert\, but alive\, persistent and embodied in our everyday lives. \n\n\n\nFrancisco has taught ceramics at Camden Art Centre\, Maison S. Sommet\, and Mudgang Pottery CIC. \n\n\n\nFrancisco currently studies Sculpture at the Royal College of Art\, where he was awarded the RCA President and Vice-Chancellor Scholarship\, following his BA at Goldsmiths University (2016). \n\n\n\nHis love for making has taken him to residencies at Sanbao Ceramics Institute in Jingdezhen\, and Casapiena in Sicily. His work has been shown nationally and internationally. \n\n\n\nFrancisco was a recipient of a Grand Plan Fund project grant in 2024. \n\n\n\nWebsite: www.franciscozhan.com \n\n\n\nInstagram account: @francisco.zhan  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout SET Ceramics\n\n\n\nSET Ceramics is a new community ceramics studio in a former Key Cutters and Cobblers.
