Musical Bodies

Drawing on her practice-led research into brass banding, Mhairi Maxwell (MA Fine Art: Painting) invites you to connect and create with musical objects through embodied music, materiality and collage.

This workshop will open up a discussion about our relationships to instruments and the sounds they produce, specifically in brass banding.

Please note: Participants must be aged 18+.

This event will be recorded.

This event is part of Dispersion, a celebration of practice-led research across a vibrant spectrum of material and energetic forms, hosted by MA Fine Art Camberwell College of Arts, University of the Arts London, in the South London Gallery’s Clore Studio.

Dispersion recalls the diffusion of ideas, the dissolving of boundaries, and the interactive forces that shape art practice; not oriented towards a singular object or event but engaged in an ongoing process of transformation. At the end of fifteen months of concentrated research, the final gathering of this MA Fine Art cohort stages an experiment in dispersion via publication, performance, and participation.

Featuring a daily public programme of performances, screenings, talks and workshops, alongside artist books, essays, and zines. With work by graduating students from MA Fine Art: Computational Arts, MA Fine Art: Drawing, MA Fine Art: Painting, MA Fine Art: Printmaking, MA Fine Art: Photography, and MA Fine Art: Sculpture.

You are welcome to drop in any time to explore the work on display. Events are free to attend and open to all (18+). Explore the rest of the Dispersion programme here.
