Mani Kambo: Ax·is Mun·di — Corridor8

1 month ago | corridor8.co.uk | Rachel Boyd |Kate Liston |Rene Francis- McBrearty

Patterns are a system of forms, rhythms, and refrains. Ax·is Mun·di– which translates as ‘centre of the earth’ – explores how pattern, observed and anticipated, can become a method of worlding: an ongoing, iterative act. Kambo’s development of this ensemble of practices was afforded through the expertise of BALTIC’s technical, curatorial, and production teams, emerging during her residency in the fourth-floor studio.
BA Fine Art Degree Show: Newcastle University — Corridor8

Aug 5, 2024 | corridor8.co.uk | Lesley Guy |Christie Yung-hei Chan |Mymona Bibi |Kate Liston

The degree show presented a number of jaw-dropping rooms with artworks displayed across campus, in the Hatton Gallery, the larger King Edward VII building and the Boiler House. In a show of nearly seventy soon-to-graduate artists, more than a few were driven to create work that expressed discomfort and unease with the limitations on identity imposed by societal structures, with childhood memory and the institution of the family being a recurring theme.
Franki Raffles: Photography, Activism, Campaign Works — Corridor8

Jul 23, 2024 | corridor8.co.uk | Rachel Boyd |Kate Liston |Laura Clarke |Debbie Rolls

The late Marxist-Feminist photographer Franki Raffles (1955–1994), known for documenting the working lives of women, believed her photographs were a means to an end. It was their circulation as pamphlets, posters and on billboards which established them as dynamic agents of social transformation, and not simply the issue of counter-informational rhetoric.
19th Berwick Film and Media Arts Festival — Corridor8

May 20, 2024 | corridor8.co.uk | Kate Liston |Michele Allen |Uma Breakdown

At seven minutes’ walk from the main festival venue of The Maltings, the Gymnasium Gallery feels far away. This is one way to scale this year’s Berwick Film and Media Arts Festival (BFMAF). It comes from aggregating walking times with programme schedules, film running times and the need to eat – a miscalculation of which meant some friends and I ended up in a screening with wrapped cod and chips stuffed in our bags. In fact, the distances are small.
Closed Enough - Corridor8

Mar 22, 2024 | corridor8.co.uk | Kate Liston |Lesley Guy

Closed Enough, an exhibition at Vane Gallery, Gateshead, embraces the restrictions of bringing artworks from one island to another. Convened by Joe Keys and Una Björg Magnúsdóttir it includes nine artists based in or associated with Iceland who have brought their work to Tyneside in luggage, in one instance by post, with a few additional objects being bought or made in the week the artists spent installing and preparing the show. Attending the preview I note the scale of the works.
A treasured feature of rural life in Wyndham

Feb 13, 2024 | catholicvoice.org.au | Kate Liston

St Joseph’s Catholic Church, Wyndham, front view. The rural community of Wyndham (about twenty minutes inland from Pambula) has struggled with parishioner numbers for decades and hasn’t held a Mass in over ten years. The time has come to say farewell to the old building and begin the process of selling it to someone else to use and love. Wyndham is a small, remote community that has recently been hit by bushfires.
Nominally Sovereign — Corridor8

Oct 2, 2023 | corridor8.co.uk | Kate Liston

How does naming affect experience? What does diagnosing a person’s experience as disordered do to that person’s sense of self? Can it give them agency or the ability to self-advocate? I have been invited by Grace Denton to think through these questions with others who resonate with the descriptor ‘artists who might not know they are neurodivergent and neurodivergent people who might not know they are artists’.
Annual Archdiocesan pilgrimage in Eden honours St Mary MacKillop

Aug 21, 2023 | catholicvoice.org.au | Kate Liston

On the weekend, Archbishop Christopher Prowse led pilgrims on a journey to remember Australia’s First Saint Mary of the Cross, MacKillop and her love for the coastal town of Eden and its people. Around the headland, Archbishop Prowse shared details about the death of Mary’s mother, Flora MacDonald, remarking that Flora’s body seemed unravaged by the rocks and the rough seas.
