Thank you to @s_s_whetton for capturing The Bower buildings in patchwork
❤️🤎🩷🤍🩵
Although we move in different ways now and the buildings will too, this is such a special memento of our time in Brunswick Park 🌳

A little studio visit with Frances Scott last week 🎥
We are so excited to see her new film ‘Wendy’ opening this week at the brilliant @tracey_aint_coming_out
‘Wendy’ is the culmination of a five year research project with TACO. These long term relationships are so important and valuable 🤍
‘Wendy’ is a film fan letter and response to the work of composer, electronic music innovator and polymath, Wendy Carlos.
Translated into a series of rehearsals, the film orbits around a duet for four hands on one piano. Together, Frances Scott and Chu-Li Shewring learn to play a transcribed version of ‘Timesteps’, an original score composed by Wendy Carlos, first imagined for Anthony Burgess’ book, ‘A Clockwork Orange’ (1962), and later realised for the soundtrack to Stanley Kubrick’s film adaptation.
Opens Thurs 25th 6.30pm and runs to 9th July @tracey_aint_coming_out
‘Diviner’ (2017) by Frances Scott was our first exhibition at The Bower, and was also a collaboration between the artist and Chu-Li Shewring #linkinbio to see archive on our website

It was wonderful to be in Dublin recently and see Jaki Irvine perform live @projectartscentre with some of the musicians she collaborated with for her exhibitions ro’ ro’ at The Bower and Ack Ro’ @frithstreetgallery in 2021.
🌷You can access the archive of ro’ ro’ on our website #linkinbio including a short film of the exhibition and the exhibition leaflet, designed by @designprintbind

YOU ALWAYS REMEMBER HOW PEOPLE MAKE YOU FEEL
This exhibition is as much about feelings as it is about the objects. It is about journeys, endings and new beginnings. It celebrates relationships and the objects we value and disregard.
G, WOAH WOE closes at 5pm today. The most fitting end to our time in this blessed Bower.
It has been a privilege and a joy to be with this work 🤍

We built a Bower and the community grew around it.🌱 We can’t wait to see what happens next! 💖
After 7 wonderful years we are leaving Brunswick Park. Catch us before we close this Sunday 2nd April @thebowerhut and don’t miss our final exhibition in Brunswick Park, WOAH WOE by G open all weekend 12-5pm. 🖤
We have poured all our love and energy into transforming the derelict former toilet block and park keepers hut into a non-profit gallery, publication studio and cafe. The Bower was founded and run on feminist principles of care, collaboration and community and we are looking forward to continuing our art and publishing practices on these foundations, watch this space!
Thank you to everyone who has supported us and made this experience so wild and precious. ✨
