Welcome to this special edition of The Grateful Web: Rogue Studios 30@30 celebrating 30 years of Rogue Artists’ Studios in Manchester.
On this episode I’m thrilled to be chatting with Hannah Leighton-Boyce.
Hannah works across a variety of sculpture formats including collage, writing, installation, and live event. Her most recent work explores processes of joining, repair, renewal, and transformation to reimagine a means of holding together fragments of writing, body, form and landscape.
At the recent night of performance and video, ‘The Same deep Water as You’ @pinkmcr
she read from the work ‘Notes from meanwhile’- a series of vignettes where she recalls, amongst other things - fever-induced hallucinations and dreams in which she willed her body to accept cells that had travelled across the world and returned to her in a clear plastic bag, the thoughts of a piece of chewing gum, the feeling of slipping away, being a body of water, and a conversation with a hip.
In recent years she has exhibited work at The National Festival of Making, White Columns, Bury Sculpture Centre Castlefield Gallery and Glasgow Women’s Library. Next month she begins both a ‘Women in Print’ residency at art lab contemporary print studio @artlabcps and a collaborative DYCP funded project with @row.land.hill building on conversations around their collage practices and, later in the year, will be heading to the Scottish Sculpture Workshop to develop some new work.
