'Never The Same, Something Else' Private View at the Old Diorama Arts Centre

Zbigniew Kotkiewicz May 10, 2022

I documented the opening event for 'Never The Same, Something Else' exhibition, supported and hosted by the Old Diorama Arts Centre.

'Never The Same, Something Else' is an immersive exhibition curated by a group of artists from Central Saint Martins. Their week-long show has been accumulated following a 7-week project led by their studio manager, where the artists researched and responded to artworks by BIPOC Artists from the UAL Art Collection and the British Artist's Film & Video Study Collection through a series of workshops. The students have used the archives to collectively and playfully draw upon a continued history with the works - one which is never the same but something else.

I started my collaboration with Old Diorama Arts Centre with documenting the opening of the Loudest Whispers exhibition.

‘Curated and presented by The Arts Project, the exhibition celebrates the strength and power of the LGBTQ+ community, including work from 34 artists linked to an open category and the theme of ‘Politics in Art’. It features both professionally trained and self-taught outsider artists as well as creative supporters of LGBTQ+ rights.’

Encounter Bow 2021

I documented Encounter Bow, a day of free outdoor arts for the local community. Produced by Chisenhale Dance Space and curated by Moi Tran, the free arts programme included contemporary dance, live art, plant soundscapes, audio walks, balloon art, origami sculptures, book readings and more—for all ages.

The projects playfully explored community care, spaces of joy and the importance of sharing and collecting stories.

With participatory experiences from Anna Sulan Masing, Caro Gervay + Lily Ly, Eelyn Lee, Jason Singh, Kimvi, Moi Tran, ShumGhostJohn, Quang Kien Van and Roman Road Trust.
