Join award-winning contemporary artist Melanie Manchot and Art Fund's Robert Dingle for an insightful talk and Q&A exploring the inspiration behind Melanie's new work, Night Moves.

Based in London, Melanie is a celebrated visual artist whose performance-based, participatory practice spans photography film, and immersive installations. Her work interrogates ideas of personal and collective identities, responding to specific locations and the increasing curtailment of public spaces.

Don’t miss this chance to hear about Melanie’s creative process first-hand and explore the exhibition.

Drinks will be available to purchase on our new balcony bar.
