Umbra Penumbra Antumbra

Flat Time House (FTHo) was the studio home of John Latham (1921-2006), recognised as one of the most significant and influential British post-war artists. In 2003, Latham declared the house a living sculpture, naming it FTHo after his theory of time, ‘Flat Time’. Until his death, John Latham opened his door to anyone interested in thinking about art. It is in this spirit that Flat Time House opened in 2008 as a gallery with a programme of exhibitions and events exploring the artist's practice, his theoretical ideas and their continued relevance. It also provides a centre for alternative learning, which includes the John Latham archive, and an artist's residency space.

Inspired by ACT UP activist Douglas Crimp and the Care Manifesto: The Politics of Interdependence, artists from the Constellations 2020-21 cohort have organised Umbra Penumbra Antumbra, a participatory gathering, that puts promiscuous kinship and care into practice through intimate collaboration. This event will encompass a number of different sessions including interactive activities: drinking, dancing, reading, resting, talking and listening. Emerging from an entirely virtual collaboration, this first physical gathering marks a resting point out of digital fatigue and dependence on extractive production. We are interested in creating a malleable space for play and care; a timescale that is soft and shifting. Event free but booking essentialConstellations is UP Projects and Flat Time House’s annual artist development programme for artists based in the UK.
