Join artist Delaine Le Bas in conversation with Tramway curator Claire Jackson, and Rosie Cooper, Director of Wysing Arts Centre, to explore the uniquely creative, personal, historical and cultural histories at work in her current Tramway exhibition Delainia: 17071965 Unfolding, open until 13 October.
This is a free, unticketed event - just come along on the day.
The conversation will be preceded by a poetry reading from Delaine, and will include time for responses and a Q&A with the audience.
Delaine Le Bas has engaged in a lifelong practice of artistic resistance. Her work draws on her biographical experiences as a Romani woman, deconstructing the stereotypes, images and language that have historically been employed to socially exclude Gypsy, Roma and Traveller communities. Across her exhibition, sculptures, paintings, embroideries, textiles, photographs, sound and film footage are melded together in immersive environments. Within a soft architecture of calico walls and tent-like forms, a dialogue between new and existing works articulates the powerful layering of personal histories and imaginaries with collective iconographies and forms of solidarity.
