Trellis art exhibition: Field Works

UCL’s Trellis initiative is a well-established knowledge exchange programme created by the Cultural and Community Engagement team at UCL East. It is co-funded by the Westfield East Bank Creative Futures Fund and the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC). 

Field Works, which is curated by public curator Rosie Murdoch for UCL, will be the fourth exhibition resulting from the programme. It responds to the urban impact on the self and is the culmination of a year of investigation, collaboration, walking, thinking and doing between the artists, researchers and communities.

The artists and researchers involved in Field Works, along with a variety of partners from across the boroughs of Hackney, Newham, Tower Hamlets and Waltham Forest, are:

• Nate Agbetu and researcher Chetna Sharma, UCL Institute for Global Health. 
• Alistair Gentry and researcher Anna Landre, UCL Computer Science. 
• Maxi Himpe and researcher Louise Archer, UCL Education, Practice and Society
• Gal Leshem and researcher Claire Lindsay, UCL School of European Languages, Culture and Society
• Olha Pryymak and researcher Sophie Page, UCL History Department
• Rechonski and researcher Jane Wilcock, UCL Primary Care & Population Health

Also on display at Hoxton Hall will be six works created in response to the six artworks by young people from east London as a result of the Trellis Young Producers project.
