Visual artist Nicola Dale explores the relationship between sculpture and performance, movement and stillness, and contemporary practice and archival material in this Bunker Talk.

Drawing on her performance In Mourning for The Whitaker Museum and other recent commissions, Nicola will discuss how these interests inform her solo, collaborative and participatory work. From reimagining everyday objects and reframing historical rituals to creating new objects designed to engage the public, she will examine the role of touch, gesture and interaction in artistic practice.

Titled Adventures in Objecthood, the talk considers how objects can shape experiences, invite participation and create new ways of engaging with art and performance.

The event is part of Bunker Talks, a series inviting artists and researchers to discuss their work, ideas and creative practice.
