Mother Tongue: Bodies Beyond Words

Language is a potent tool that forms our perceptions of the world including the female body. Just as language constructs complex meanings with words, bodies, too, are constructed; instead of words they are constructed by society through power dynamics. In this exhibition, the body is activated and takes centre stage, in a way that is not bound by the structures of patriarchal society; a poetic language in which multiple meanings prevail. Mother Tongue features a divers range of works across media of painting, sculpture, photography, video, text, textile, performance and sound. Mother Tongue invites viewers to participate in a multi-faceted dialogue that goes beyond spoken or written words, encouraging a new contemplation of the relationship between language and the body.

Crossing Borders

Millbank Tower is located beside the River Thames, opposite MI6, with Tate Britain to the right and Westminster within walking distance to the left. The second floor of Millbank Tower, a Grade 2 listed building designed by Ronald Ward, will be infiltrated with conceptual art from 1 – 5 November 2023. The building, formerly the office of the United Nations, and the Labour and Conservative political parties, still appears as a gatekeeper and mystery space where secret government decisions were made. The exhibition will present a site-embedded political space – that formulates a critique on institutional power structures.


The group show will present varying artistic positions that dismantle and question the role of borders, security and economic policies, power and class systems, the consequences of societal norms and human-made conditions – starting from the history and political topicality of the space itself, Millbank Tower.

Labour of Love

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

Encoding, Decoding


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.

DesignInquiry Work/Around

DesignInquiry Work/ Around, part of the 2023 London Design Festival programme, was a weeklong risograph print and publication workshop aiming to subvert the notion of the obstacle as an obstruction to creativity. Instead, it is suggested that accepting and working around difficulties or disadvantages during the creative process can be conducive to thoughtfulness, imagination, and artistry.

Participants visited the space throughout the week for a series of workshops, presentations and talks curated by DesignInquiry, a multidisciplinary collective researching and developing new strategies for design. DesignInquiry is led by UAL’s Peter Hall, a reader in Graphic Design at CCW. He employs mapping and visualisation techniques as interactive design methods, with a specific emphasis on addressing issues related to the climate crisis, risk, and security.
