This week we are featuring the artist Elena Bajo and her work “ Plan for a Composition in 3 Movements” - a performance that she made in collaboration with London Based actors: Jessica Manley, Kasha Bajor, Joyia Fitch, Lowri James, T Davar, Lucy Thanes, Irene Fuma.
Focusing on precise moments of disruption and change, Elena Bajo presents new work in response to the social, political and technological histories of the Woodmill site in London. In it's current incarnation the building has recently been turned into artists' studios and galleries, but it has previously been, among other things, a council office building, a stables, a bus depot and a wheelwright. In Bajo's work the material conditions of redevelopment and regeneration, the waste generated from urban renewal, the 'stuff' of social change, combine with a performative and ongoing historical document of the local urban landscape to produce dispersed sculptural assemblages and installations that open out on to an investigation of universal political forms.
