Sarah Sze, The Waiting Room<\/a> \u2014<\/strong><\/strong> Peckham (London)
<\/strong>19 May-17 September 2023
Each week I learn something completely new shifting what I think I understand. I wasn\u2019t familiar with Sarah Sze\u2019s work until I saw her exhibition at Peckham. This installation was created specifically for the old Waiting Room at Peckham Rye Station, a beautiful space that is usually locked up from view. Like walking into a kaleidoscope, this was one of the most beautiful, spiritual and ephemeral artworks I\u2019ve seen all year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Philharmonia Orchestra: Gustav Mahler: Symphony No 1 \u201cTitan\u201d<\/a> \u2014 Bold Tendencies, Peckham (London)
<\/strong>16 September
The end of the season and the last warm night of summer! A beautiful uplifting yet sad end to the Crisis programme. Presented alongside huge banners with the words of Greta Thunberg, reminding us we can all be the change we\u2019re seeking, we were taken on a journey through nature, from the small sounds of a bird call to the sonic boom of ice crashing. Incredibly lucky to also hear Gustav Mahler\u2019s granddaughter Marina speak after the performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Colour, Culture & Happiness, Using Collaborative Strategies for Thriving Communities \u2014 June Mineyama-Smithson, Justine Fox, Ruth Campbell & Lucy Bagshaw<\/a> \u2014<\/strong> London Design Fair, Shoreditch (London)
<\/strong>22 September 2023
Designing spaces for connection and community is what I love! I\u2019ve been following June Mineyama-Smithson aka Mamimu and Justine Fox for a while now so I\u2019m excited to finally hear them talk about a subject so close to my heart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

London Design Festival<\/a>
<\/strong>16\u201424 September
It\u2019s the last weekend of London Design Festival! I\u2019ve not had much time this year to explore but I\u2019m planning to see Simone Brewster\u2019s Spirit of Place. I love cork and I\u2019m really interested to see how it\u2019s being used as a public sculpture. This is very exciting for me! I\u2019ll also stop in to see the Hackability of the Stool by Daisuke Motogi at the Vitra Tramshed showroom. I\u2019ve looked longingly through the windows of the showroom for years and want to finally see the space. If you ever walk past, don\u2019t forget to look at the amazing doors! Those colours!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Morag Myerscough Nice to Meet You <\/a>Again<\/a> \u2014<\/strong> Shoreditch Electric Light Station, Hoxton (London)
