- Drowning in a sea of you
A solo exhibition by Maisie Maris, bringing together sculpture, textiles, installation, participation, and performance to explore the sea as both a physical environment and a space shaped by memory, migration, displacement, mourning, and transformation.
Seeing the coastline as something both emotional and material, the exhibition considers how the climate crisis is lived intimately, entangled with experiences of personal loss and collective grief.
Developed during Maris’ residency at ESPS and in collaboration with dancer Anna Nicholls @annalouisenicholls , the project will be shaped through workshops with local groups, Babes in Arms @babesinarmsart with Georgina Cook @georginaccook The Refugee Buddy Project @therefugeebuddyproject with Frances Crowley, and Project Rewild with Luke Funnell @project_rewild culminating in a sculptural installation and closing performance.
