Looking back at movements in history right up to the present day, Katy will be focusing on Extinction Rebellion and their prolific revolt which has taken the world by storm.

Extinction Rebellion describes themselves as an international movement that uses non-violent civil disobedience in an attempt to halt mass extinction and the risk of social collapse. Hailed as the most creative resistance movement in history, Katy will discuss the design, typography, performance pieces and other art forms they use to promote their message.

Whether this revolution is or isn't for you. They sure make a statement!

There will even be a chance for you to get involved and create your own Extinction Rebellion logos with XR Art Blockers using lino-printing!

Using printmaking, painting and sewing, XR Art Blockers hand-make rebellious objects for the promotion of Extinction Rebellion on a huge scale. Their aim is to support XR national actions by providing an endless flow of beautiful objects and encourage others to set up their own local groups to do the same

This is an all-inclusive event, all proceeds from ticket sales will be donated to XR

Invisible Divisions

@ Ollie Quinn
Admn: Free

Infrathin and our relationship between technology and the environment are revealed in themes of nature and the everyday which are prevalent in the found images that pervade Noelle Genevier’s collages. These works which are often 3d and sculptural contain the intertwining of pattern, shape and colour to create opposing perspectives.
Genevier’s work questions human-centric ontology through infrathin, looking at the space between the warp and the weft and the objects that are on the periphery of our vision, investigating the unseen. The materiality of paper and unexpected similarity between disparate images; the idea that all things are equal and meshed together like jigsaw pieces combined with our interaction between our environment and technology are Genevier’s driving forces.

ETC: 'Skin' with Emma Hopkins

@ New England House
Admn: £3

Our ETC events are talks and panel discussions here at Draw Brighton where we explore the concerns of art and the body. This year our talks will explore the realities and mythologies of the unclothed body, what it means to sell our image, and how it feels to both depict the figure and be depicted ourselves.

As part of our 'Skin' season at Draw we have invited the painter Emma Hopkins to the Draw studio to talk about her process, artistic background and what separates a life drawing from an unclothed portrait. Emma's uncompromising paintings of unclothed people celebrate the human body in all its variety and her unswerving attention to the surface of skin create portraits of intensely observed humanity. We'll be starting the evening with Jake and Emma in conversation before opening the discussion up with questions from the audience.

As spaces will be limited, booking in advance is essential. To book your space visit www.draw-brighton.co.uk or email info@draw-brighton.co.uk
