Artists in Conversation: Adam York Gregory & Gillian Jane Lees

Events

Tuesday 3 February, 1pm
Jack Hylton Room, Great Hall Complex 
Free, please book

In partnership with Lancaster University School of Arts

Join us for our free artist conversation programme. Artists making exciting work across a range of media will be joined by researchers or those working in relevant fields to discuss the ideas, themes and questions driving their work. There will be plenty of opportunity for the audience to join in the conversation and connect with artists working in our region and beyond. 

First up, we welcome Adam York Gregory and Gillian Jane Lees

Gillian Jane Lees is a performance practitioner who undertakes physically demanding and mentally exhausting durational performances. Adam York Gregory is a visual artist, writer and filmmaker. Together, they create durational works that test where determination meets physical limits and explore links between disparate subjects to reveal new meanings. They create sculpture exploring the ‘imagined ideal’ through performance, experimentation, documentation and observation, often engaging with themes of materiality, repetition and failure. 

Their work BALANCE will be in the gallery at the start of the season.
