Gather to Loose (one tonne), conceived 2020
One tonne of soil
2 x 120cm diameter x 12cm height
Hannah Walton is a Namibian-South African artist and researcher based in London. Through attention to form and materiality, her practice is concerned with embodiment, an experience of space and the everyday processes of meaning-making. She works across sculpture, installation, sound and performance. She hosts a monthly open mic for sound art and experimental music in South London, expanding her practice into a collective invocation of chaos and receptivity.
The name of our upcoming show is taken from Walton's 2020 work, Gather to Loose (one tonne), which is part of an ongoing body of work exploring subjectivity, process and materiality. These soil works call attention to how we are shaped by everyday encounters with material, form and space. The soil for each work comes to rest momentarily as an artwork before being incorporated into community gardens around London; their material life cycles are a nod to the transient nature of what we tend to see as fixed.
