Making Place Residency at Fabrica, Sept/Oct 2024
Katy and Rebeeca Beinart will be undertaking a week-long residency at Fabrica as part of their Making Place residency series. They will use their Making Space residency to review their collaborative practice, and specifically ‘Origination’, an ongoing project they began in 2008. Beginning as an investigation into their family history and migrations, growing into a wider project about the materiality, memory, and rituals of migration and diaspora, they have used performance, sculpture, film and other media to explore recreating these lost and invisible heritages.
Webinar and UCL Urban Lab event, October 2024
In October there will be further screenings of A Difficult Place (2023), a short film by Katy Beinart and John Edwards that reveals the true cost of the cost of living crisis, and its devastating effect on individuals. The film will be shown via an online webinar and at an event at UCL’s Urban Laboratory, alongside other films co-created with communities that explore themes of austerity, food poverty and gentrification.
