A lot of the lovely folks we work with have new stuff going out into the world real soon: What Becomes... Xavier de Sousa 6-29 June 2024 Thursdays to Saturdays (various times) METAL Peterborough, PE1 1PY A new interactive exhibition made in collaboration with Nicol Parkinson and migrant communities in Peterborough and Leeds. The exhibition explores the processes of adaptation that migrants go through when moving to a new place and to a new community. “When you move somewhere, is the onus on you to adapt or others? And what becomes of us, over time, over all these changing landscapes?” Created in collaboration with members of the Peterborough community, Xavier explains that the project “looks into how we change (in our souls, in our behaviour, in our language, in our bodies) as a result of co-existing in a new place, in a new culture.” Blending pottery work, performance, writing and sound art, What Becomes… invites the audience to immerse themselves, experience and also contribute their stories of adaptation.

Link to book your space: https://forms.gle/6PCjN5oTUQaewz9q8 Hosted by Xavier de Sousa and video work directed by Richard Warburton, Slow Cooking Live is a live podcast-video art experiment, inviting artists who have a history of migration and also work with food-making and food-sharing as creative tools. Together, they will spend the day buying food from local markets and independent shops, cook together and then travel to Theatre in the Mill to share it all with you. Cooking recipes that are relevant to the guests’ own artistic practices (or their favourite foods), Selina, Toni-Dee and Sonia will discuss the origins of the food, the impact on their communities and how they have incorporated it into their creative practices.
