For our eighth Studio Social, Pier Projects and Hamilton MAS are delighted to welcome artist Maria Proshkowska for an artist talk and studio showcase.
Maria, who has been based in Ipswich since she was forced to leave Ukraine due to the ongoing war, will introduce her practice through a studio showcase titled ‘Grain’ comprising video and a sand-based installation. The video, with its emphasis on repetition in movement,’ is a metaphor for the accumulation and processing of personal experience and the importance of routine in this process.
This event is programmed in collaboration with Hamilton MAS, the micro arts space by the sea and made possible with the support of Arts Council England.
Free, No Booking Required.
