What are we but meat?

Celebrate International Women's Day by exploring the works of Dorothy Mead.

"What are we but meat?" is inspired by seven works by Dorothy Mead that are in the A David Bomberg Legacy - The Sarah Rose Collection.

Specifically: "Reclining Nude", "Standing Female Figure", "Transvestite", "Reclining Figure(Resting Model)", "Reclining Figure", "Reclining Nude", and "Acrobat". They are all available in the gallery's online collection.
It is further inspired by a perspective on Dorothy Mead's self portrait written by Ruth Busby exploring the blurring of features in Mead's works in relation to identity, representation, and gender.

These works are explored through a movement performance by Demsey Legrand and Mai Tassinari with an ambient sound piece created by London South Bank University Sound Design student Mattia Turchetti.

The performance will be followed by a talk where Dorothy Mead is the starting point.
