Ground Collective is delighted to announce their n Ground Collective is delighted to announce their new project Messages from a Silent River. Conceived by @marcia_teusink @ground__collective were delighted when Marcia's proposal was accepted by @recessed.space @hyphastudios @hyphacurates for Hypha Gallery 2, 1 Poultry. PV NOV 6 6-9 - through Hypha Presents on EVENTBRITE - with a performance at 7pm from @yuminoseki Messages from a Silent River is a multi-disciplinary exhibition inspired by the lost course of the Walbrook River - once an open waterway in Roman London and now a silent presence beneath The City. The theme provides a lens for the artists of Ground Collective to explore a range of ideas, from the city's forgotten past to the urgent realities of the global climate crisis. Weaving together sculpture, painting, installation, printmaking and video, the exhibition is informed by walks taken in the area with artist and mudlarker Mark Sowden. Ground Collective is made up of a core group of multidisciplinary artists, a poet, and changing guest contributors. United by a shared interest in place, they create work in response to walks and encounters with the everyday - gathering materials, impressions, and ideas from both rural and urban environments. Participants include: Madi Acharya- Baskerville, Tom Banks, Heidi Erbrich, Joost Gerristen, Tracy Hill, Sam Hodge, James Roseveare, Yumino Seki, Mike Sims, Mark Sowden, Matthew Swift, Marcia Teusink #artcollective #artistcollective #londonriver #londonhistory #romanlondon #contemporarylondon @recessed.space @tmobanks @heidiviolin @joostgerritsen_ @samhodgeart @marksowden3 @jamesroseveare @madiacharyabaskerville @tchill80 @abosimian @mswiftyart @marcia_teusink
