a longing swell(s)
by ted tinkler25.09 - 11.10
opening night: 24.09 / 6-9pm
A longing swell(s) uses tangible objects to reimagine the (hi)story of the Shetlandic wadmaal* taxcloth. After hours of touch and labour, the taxcloth was suspended in rocky clefts in the sea - in the intertidal zone. Drawing from fragmented archival references, A longing swell(s) questions: how can we imagine our liberated futures into being?
This exhibition presents a new body of work by Ted Tinkler at outhouse gallery. The tactile knitted-lace is a physical process of research, whilst the found ceramic fragments are objects offered as an archive in themselves. They are an expansive embodiment of land justice and trans liberation.
A longing swell(s) is an intimate telling of stories …historic, ephemeral, and imagined. Stories that reside amongst the swell of the tide: the in-between, the permeable and plural, the fluid boundaries.
*a wool cloth used as a form of payment until the mid 1700s. The precise making methods are unrecorded.
The exhibition also includes collaborations with Jeong Lee, Kitt Glover, and Arts for Dementia participants. Invitations to create new works that delve into queer ecology, tactile processes, and lace shadows.

passing remains
by mina fouladi8.10 - 11.10
at SWAB Barcelona
In this solo exhibition Mina Fouladi explores fragments of memory, movement and place through painting. Working from personal photographic archives, the paintings examine how images preserve fleeting experiences and how memories are shaped by what is visible and what remains obscured. Moving between intimate interiors, urban landscapes and material fragments, the works consider painting as a form of documentation, a way of slowing down images and tracing the relationship between personal experience and the spaces we inhabit.

outhouse live

14.10 / 6pm
TICKETS
Come and join us for a cosy night of live music performed by Charlie Franklin and Hannah Archambault at the outhouse gallery in Brunswick Park, London. Make sure to bring warm clothes and comfy blankets to make the evening extra sweet and homely!
Charlie Franklin’s music is a hauntingly intimate play of Romantic Blues and Folk, carried by a voice that dances between fragility and power. Her songs are a catharsis of intuitive release, sincere confessions of love and self, driven by a delicate accompaniment of fingerstyle guitar. For fans of Laura Marling and Nick Drake, Franklin’s music echoes a timeless, bucolic world of heartfelt poetry, inspired from candlelit corners and the sanctuary of woodland.
Hannah Archambault is a French-Polish musical artist, composer and performer based in London. Her music features organ drones, vocals and field recordings. She calls for an attentive and inward listening, where we ‘feel time’ through the sustained notes of the organ, textural field recordings and an experimental use of the voice. Dark, intimate and mysterious, but also raw and vulnerable - her ambient music draws from cinematic soundtracks, female laments and flamenco singing.

a dream no one had
by Amelia Akiko Frank, Aruna, Calum Stevens, Christian Ching, Henry Glover, Kenji Sakai, Sakura Ryuke, and Yutaro Inagaki23 - 24.10
PV: 22.10 / 6-9pm
“A Dream No One Had” is a photography-based group exhibition by Amelia Akiko Frank, Aruna, Calum Stevens, Christian Ching, Henry Glover, Kenji Sakai, Sakura Ryuke, and Yutaro Inagaki.
The eight participants come from different backgrounds and practices, including painting, furniture making, and biological research. While photography is not necessarily the primary medium for all of them, each uses it as a way of observing and recording the world around them.
As these fragments of different realities come together in one space, they begin to form unexpected relationships—as if a dream that no one has ever seen before is slowly taking shape.
