Dig Me a Grave: an artist lab with Claye Bowler

Claye Bowler is investigating themes of forced waiting, using the symbol/metaphor/actual space of an open grave. Not dead, but also not quite alive enough to leave the grave.

Join Claye for a two-day artist lab that offers an in-depth exploration of his artist practice, including his research, materials and techniques. We will delve into the intersections of queer/trans/disabled experience, memory, and materiality, engaging hands-on with the layers of meaning embedded in soil, casting, collecting, and archiving. Activities tbc but prolly include: Looking & discussing Claye's and other artist's work, watching lil films, visiting a cemetery, digging holes, casting soil, having a nap, exploring folk songs, and more! Full schedule will be sent in advance.

Dig Me a Grave is a two day lab, with sessions running from 2pm to 8pm both days. Your ticket includes entry to both days. The lab is offered as part of CEREMONY, Future Ritual’s year-long programme exploring performance as a mode of gathering and communing in times of fragmentation.
