Artist Peer Group: July 2021

We’re a London based not-for-profit organisation that supports artists and cultural producers interested in or working in the field of arts and health. The Hub is artist led and primarily for artists, although we welcome people from other backgrounds such as health and care professionals. We are inclusive. Our organisation is open to artists from all backgrounds, communities, experiences and qualifications.Whilst we’re London based we also work online and with partner organisations to support artists across the UK.

Our peer groups provide the space for artists to share active ideas, projects and challenges, with peer support from audience participants.Our artists this month are <a href="https://www.gold.ac.uk/theatre-performance/staff/papadelli-vanio/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Vanio Papadelli</a> and <a href="https://www.workbyslqs.com/work/manifesto" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Sarah Le Quang Sang</a>.Vanio Papadelli is a movement artist and lecturer based in London. She has worked as a performer, maker, workshop facilitator and event organiser. Her artistic practice engages with issues of vulnerability, memory and candidness in human relationships by fusing physicality, video projections and poetic texts. She has also performed for an eclectic mix of theatre and dance practitioners.At this month’s peer group Vanio will be sharing “a concept I’ve been working on for a couple of years and intend to eventually present as a performance installation is inspired by my experience of giving birth. A rather traumatic encounter with a midwife and the long-lasting process of physical and mental postpartum recovery has caused a deep questioning of personal beliefs around care but also about systemic practices of care. I aim to share some of the writing I’ve done so far and short video extracts of performed actions.”

Image: Sarah Le Quang SangSarah Le Quang Sang (SLQS) is a Franco-Vietnamese artist living in East London. Her work is provocative: it questions the politics of space and who is excluded from it. She reclaims space by immersing herself and others in the public realm. SLQS makes and holds space as a woman, a person of mixed heritage, a foreigner, a mother, an artist and an equestrian. She invites her audience to decolonise spatial orders from imperialist, sexist and racist structures.SLQS says she is “looking for collaborators and/or art organisations to support the development of a video installation of my existing work: HBAC Performance Manifesto. This work was written from my personal experience of being pregnant and not given access to a home birth, having previously had a cesarean.On 4th and 5th November 2018, over 25 hours, I performed the act of giving birth at home with the support of two independent midwives. The birth was documented as an act of everyday life in the domestic space, with cameras set up in my kitchen, my bedroom and my living room. I haven&#x27;t yet edited this footage. I would like to create a video installation of my birth and the HBAC Performance Manifesto to shed light on this issue. My challenge is that as a performance maker, I haven&#x27;t yet done a video installation. I would like advice on the creation of it, where this installation can live, how to get an audience for it, how to fund it.”
