This year we will introduce an 'in conversation' with Louise Colbourne meeting:
Viv Albertine, Claudia Barton and Christiana Yeo-Clarey.
Viv Albertine was the guitarist in the hugely influential
all-female punk band, the Slits. More recently her book Clothes, Music, Boys has won much acclaim for its
frank and intimate account of her life.
Christiana
Yeo-Clarey is
a performance artist who weaves together notions of motherhood, feminine
identity and the wilderness within her part performance/part discussion
installations.
Claudia Barton is a torch singer and lyricist and is an associate
artist with the performance duo Curious who conduct edgy, humorous interrogations
of contemporary culture and politics.
An intimate discussion between these three influential female
artists will be based on the ideas that inform their work, the
effect of motherhood on their creative output and future projects…
The actions, performances and writings of these three artists,
although often intimate in nature, all move towards activism and protest. Their
voice, in very different ways, expresses an honest account with a female
sensibility that looks towards revolution.
