A Winter Lights Installation will grow in size each week and 'Studio Opens' will allow guests into the Studios of our neighbouring Artists :[[https://www.iwecreate.com]]
A new performance area is now in construction and will open fully in the spring. 'The Woodyard Stage'. as the name suggests is a large carpentry studio workshop that will be transformed into a Stage a few days and evenings a month. We will be putting on Theatre, Spoken Word, Opera and other musical performances. Please get in touch if interested in being involved in any way.
All Work displayed in the gallery will have been made and produced with recycled materials or reused and previously discarded old art.
Items that were once on their way to landfill or the incinerator have been now become the artists raw materials and are given a new meaning.
Exhibitions and Shows will highlight the waste in society, of people, products, and how we treat the planet and its resources.
We will highlight advances in recycling, biophilic projects and environmental challenges and hope to provide innovative new ideas and educational resources that can reduce the carbon foot print of us all but especially in industrial processes, manufacturing and the built environment.
We are a promoter of Non-Toxic paints and Art Materials, and encourage Artists to rethink their processes and practices by also using products that existed before the rise of Petro Chemicals.
Parts of the space can be transformed into a Giant Working Studio or Production Line to produce Recycled and Upcycled products and is available to hire for group workshops for adults or childens events, and for team building or training, and can add a new diamension of thinking for environmentally safe and green projects.
TheLondonMine is named because of the curators maximum use of local resources which have been 'Mined'.
Urban Mining is the gathering, processing, developing and then re-using, in original form, or by extracting the best parts of these resources. Most would call these resources waste or rubbish. Urban Miners see the obvious potential and how these throwaways can be used immediately or in the future.
The building has been refurbished with 99% relaimed materials. Its design, evolving configurations of rooms and corridors create a constantly changing morphed reality, where space and time intersect or disipate as one moves throught it.
Its long connecting tunnel like corridoor with its wooden beamed ceilings and unique lighting installation symbolises and imagines a Mine.
The exhibitions can dissapear from view using hidden storage areas to create vast open spaces that lends itself to multiple event options.
Connected to the gallery is a Prop Store of pre-used items, from film and theatre sets, reclaimed furniture, textiles, vintage clothing & art and we are always rotating the stock and creating new pieces. We are open to the public for sales by appointment and in our pop-up market days. We are also available for prop-hire to trade customers for film, theatre and event bookings.
We are non-political and run as not for profit. Profits made will go towards a Disaster Zone Rebuild charity, currently being set up.
The space is available as a private hire venue for other various uses and as a shoot location.
Get in touch, we would love to hear your ideas and how they would fit into our set up. Send us an email regarding uses of the building or for props sale and hire.
EVENTS PROGRAM STARTING SOON !!! PLEASE LEAVE AN EMAIL WITH YOUR DETAILS. WE WILL GET BACK TO YOU FOR OUR OPEN DAYS AND PRIVATE VIEWS.
