Nicer Tuesdays: May

This event will take place in EartH Theatre.

We’ll be welcoming artist Murugiah, whose debut solo exhibition will be opening at the Quentin Blake Centre for Illustration this month, as he speaks on the process of creating this new slew of painted, oddball characters. As well as that, Amber Weaver, the founder and director of Type01 Magazine and font marketplace Type Department will be joining us to discuss her creative outlets and expansion across type-focused platforms. Togolese-German photographer Delali Ayivi, whom we featured last year for her fantastic Wimbledon photos, will be sharing the stage to talk about her work and various themes surrounding Togolese identity; and Will Anderson and Ainslie Henderson will be sharing how they created the mystical (and terrifying) animated homunculi from the BBC show Small Prophets.

Make sure to get down to the event at 6pm when the doors open to have the chance to grab a drink and snack from our sponsors El Rayo Tequila and Lovecorn. The event will take place on Tuesday 5 May at EartH in Hackney. Doors will open at 6pm and the talks will begin around 7:15pm. The full address is EartH, 11-17 Stoke Newington Rd, London N16 8BH.
