Brixton Wearables

An immersive workshop exploring belonging through Brixton’s rich material culture using movement, montage, architecture and archival imagery
About this Event

Wear white and join us at the heart of Brixton, a site of resistance, ethnically diverse and rich layered histories. Everyone is welcome to explore Brixton’s links to Africa & the Americas by creating collage postcards and wearable models. Inspired by the market’s architecture and carnival craftsmanship, the workshop draws attention to micro-businesses, communal rituals and cultural expressions that embody belonging while revealing tensions of displacement and othering. During the activity, we will build a postcard atlas on the shopfront of Danclair’s Kitchen. Participants will be portrayed against this collective canvas adding another layer to the identity of this community.
