The Art of Recycling

Wallspace played host to this exhibition, which was part of the City of London Festival. Alumni of the Royal College of Art helped 300 children from six London primary schools to be whimsical with waste, turning the City's own refuse into imaginative works of art. These were worn in procession on the opening day of the festival and then brought to Wallspace for the week-long exhibition.

Silent Space at Wallspace

With artists Marcella Montoya Turnill, Regan O'Callaghan and Lucy Brennan-Sheil

Silent Space is a three-day, three-artist silent event with drawing and contemplation, encouraging anyone and everyone to experience a quiet space in the City.

Visitors are given drawing materials and encouraged to take part. Loose sheets of paper are available and floor spaces covered with paper for drawing.

Prayer times, on each hour, are led by the artists and may be said prayers or meditative silence. Visitors are invited to join in, or simply to sit and observe.

Artworks can be taken away or added to the growing exhibition in the church.

With grateful thanks to the Bishop of London
