Be one of the first to see the latest creative collaboration between Tom de Freston and his wife, award-winning novelist Kiran Millwood Hargrave.
The works emerge from a period of profound personal upheaval: the couple experienced seven pregnancy losses before welcoming their daughter in 2023. Staged within shifting architectures and grounded within bodies which owe as much to Titian as they do the antique, the show reverberates with uncanny historical echoes - inviting us to find space for the pregnant body (and its vulnerabilities) in the classical canon. These works do not aestheticise grief; they metabolise it, fusing biography with myth in a language that is raw, tender and fiercely contemporary.
Booking is essential.
