Opening Night: 12 May, 6 – 8 pm

Exhibition Dates: May 12 – 14 2023

We are excited to announce that our 2023 Arts Programme will include an exhibition by Swiss artist Fabienne Hess, who was awarded the exhibition by Art Committee Co-Chairs Mary Branson and Julie Hoyle.  

This May, Fabienne will create an exhibition of silk hangings, which she is developing through participation in church communities such as the Mothers’ Group and Breakfast on the Steps, as well as through researching the church’s archive. Fabienne’s exhibition looks at fabric as a metaphor for community. This explores the idea that community, like fabric, is made by the joining of disparate elements into a whole that offers shelter and belonging. Hess is getting to know these communities well and has invited the members of the Mothers’ Group to her studio in Hackney to take a look at her artwork and to collaborate with her on the content of her silk hanging designs for the upcoming exhibition.
