Month: October 2023

The exhibition “Labour of Love” by Mil Vukovic-Smart, a PhD researcher at Chelsea College of Arts, presents insights from gardening practice undertaken over the last four years at Chiswick House and Gardens, the birthplace of the English Landscape Movement. By drawing on embodied movement practices and the histories of dance, it approaches historic gardens as choreographic objects and conceives gardening as a form of choreographic dwelling.  

On view by appointment only at Millbank Tower, Podium, Studio 18 

Wednesday 25 Oct – Saturday 28 October 1pm-6pm.  

Please RSVP here or for more information contact m.vukovic@arts.ac.uk 

This group exhibition is underpinned by Stuart Hall’s theory of ‘Encoding and Decoding’. It offers a semiotic way of understanding how meaning-making is generated through the production and consumption of signs and messaging. This is embedded in the architecture of the exhibition, as a pedagogic initiative. The exhibition will show work by students and staff of Afro-Caribbean Heritage and explores the contributions made by the Windrush Generation, as well as the Black herstory and history of pioneers and inventors; offering fresh knowledge as a decolonial intervention and as a teaching and learning intervention.
