Overview

Explore new forms of connection through movement, guided creative exercises, meditation and experimental camera-less photography.

For the second workshop in the Museum of Connection series, artists Georgia Clemson and Lina Ivanova invite participants to slow down and reflect on how we move through the world and how our movements connect us to others. Hosted by IMT Gallery, the workshop explores everyday gestures of connection grounded in lived experience, and translates them into playful, embodied actions.

In the last decade, experiences of closeness have shifted dramatically. While digital communication is abundant, many of us now rely on screens for connection. Georgia and Lina began The Museum of Connection in response to this change, inspired by Donna Haraway’s concept of sympoiesis - meaning “making-with” - a reminder that creation and survival depend on collaboration.

Together, participants will explore movement slowly and consciously, offering a pause from the fast pace of deadlines, to-do lists, and everyday routines. Through guided activities and group collaboration, gestures and shared poses will be transformed into cyanotype prints, an experimental photographic process that uses light and shadow to create vivid blue images.

Working individually, in small groups, and as a whole collective, participants will create cyanotype artworks that capture traces of movement, connection, and presence.

As a participant, you will also have the opportunity to contribute your work to the Museum’s growing archive, a living monument to community created through shared time, attention, and collaboration.

Each workshop in the series explores a different theme, so if you have joined us before, you are warmly invited to return.

No previous experience is necessary. All materials will be provided.

Meet the artists:

Georgia Clemson and Lina Ivanova are London-based artists with fifteen years combined experience in creative facilitation. They first exhibited together in A Cohesion of Light at Peckham 24 (2021), and created The Museum of Connection in 2024. Both artists have a background in experimental photography and make work challenging the conventions of the medium.

Georgia’s work has been featured in Source Photographic Review, Harper’s Bazaar and Vogue Italia. Recent exhibitions include The vessel that contains me at Creative Health Camden and Retreat: the UK’s first climate refugees at Middlesex University as part of Barnet Climate Action Month. Lina is a co-founder of Revolv Collective and a recipient of the Turner Contemporary Portfolio Prize. Her work has been exhibited by RPS, South Bermondsey Art Trail and Goethe Institut Bulgaria. Her most recent commission is Business is driven by quarterly results, a public art installation in Croydon, funded by Turf Projects.
