The artist collective starts with movement: works travel by carrying, rolling, sound, and bodies. Referencing Italo Calvino’s ‘City of Clarice’ repeatedly collapsing, rebuilt with fragments from its last iteration. They propose modular units that can be reconfigured. Moving between rooms, pausing and linking spaces. Growing, splitting or reappearing.

It nods at past or future that never fully fits. In Southwark’s terrain of ritual, labour, building and erasure sit side-by-side. The river, streets and former execution square all hold traces. The exhibition is a stage. Part archive. Part rehearsal. It asks how we revise, repeat, and what futures we’re already living inside.

Public Programme:
– Frank Chickens, a Japanese musical group based in London that have a unique approach for sound and movement will run, ‘Spaceship Builders’ workshop: participants use found materials (cardboard, foil, packaging) to build wearable ‘spaceship’ forms, then stage a guided movement score through the exhibition, with pauses and reconfigurations
– Southwark time-walk: a short group walk mapping nearby traces (river edge, redevelopment sites) led by an organiser from Crossbone Graveyard, returning for an informal discussion in the exhibition.
