Lunchtime Conversation w/ Kristina Nenova

"Wintering is a practice I observed and admired as a child, leaving me with endearing memories of basements being coloured by jars of preserves - preparing for the sparse and uncertain times of colder seasons.

The jars hold the recipes and advice given to you by older women in your life, the knowledge passed down to you, their hope that it doesn’t disappear with them. They contain and display your thoughts, your undiscussed fears, your fading memories; staying on shelves, in cupboards or boxes until you need them, until you hand them to a neighbour, to a friend, to a stranger, or maybe to someone visiting your show.

The exhibition places importance on the way knowledge is passed down within families, the preservation of fading distant memories and highlights the urgency of now."

The 'Lunchtime Conversation' is an informal event hosted once per exhibition at BasementArtsProject. It is an opportunity to have lunch and chat around the kitchen table with the current artist exhibiting in this case Kristina Nenova. Afterwards there will be an opportunity to head down to the Basement where the artist will talk about her work.
