SHE: An International Art Collaboration Exploring the Construct of Femininity

SHE will be a large multi media art event taking place at the stunning 47-49 Tanner Street, a Victorian warehouse just a stone’s throw from the South Bank.

On the 30 and 31 July 2016, SHE will showcase the work of over 60 visual and performance artists as part of the Perform Gender Festival hosted by Ugly Duck. SHE will showcase the work of local and international artists exploring the theme of femininity, feminine identity and issues faced by women worldwide.

SHE will also be exhibiting the outcomes of an ambitious artistic international exchange, where replications of the same curated artworks will simultaneously be exhibited in SHE exhibitions in our partnering galleries, the LPM Gallery in Texas, USA and the Soa La Gallery in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. As part of the international collaboration 5 artists from the UK will also exhibit works that have been created across continents with artists from both Vietnam and the US, in a celebration of international solidarity, connectedness and difference.

Along with exhibiting a selection of artworks, from the beautiful to the provocative, SHE will also be an inclusive and fun art experience for visitors attending the show and our opening reception, that is set to be another awesome arty party following Sweet ‘Art tradition, including interactive artworks and fun and exciting freebies and surprises. Sponsored by Cinesync, guests will also have the opportunity to artistically connect with guests in Vietnam and the US in real time.

With help from our sponsors and collaborators we plan for SHE to be our most ambitious event to date, continuing our ethos of making art accessible to all.

So do join us for a vagina cupcake, Sweet ‘Art punch and beers courtesy of Five Points Brewery on the 30th of July in celebration and solidarity!
