Transformation(s)

An experimental one-day encounter curated around transformations of matter, featuring artists Marie Ducaté, Sillycat Glassblower and Turbo Particules. Works range from glassblowing and demonstrations with recycled glass, to clay and hand-built ceramics, color-based installations, soundscapes using theremin and projected light, plus participatory workshops.
Through surface, fire, light and gesture, the programme examines material change — how processes reveal hidden properties, provoke sensory shifts and reframe everyday substances as sites of wonder and inquiry.

20 June – 30 August

Artist Sara McLaren offers a sensitive, affective exploration of our relationship to land, place and the trajectories that traverse us. Rooted in a simple question—what binds us to a place?—the project gathers intimate local narratives through encounters and workshops. Stories are translated into earth: participants build layered rammed-earth sculptures, each stratum shaping a testimony. Between personal testimony and collective memory, the installation stages an archaeology of the present, where bodies, words and imaginaries coexist.
