"Looking Down " Photography Exhibition Andy Palfreyman

Andy Palfreyman was street homeless for 30 years after he left his parental home in Cheshire at the age of 19. He slept mostly in the streets of London in various postcodes. Life changed in 2015 after a chance conversation with an artist who had an exhibition next to the Swiss Church, where he used to come for weekly breakfast. That’s how he got his first camera and the necessary support for his artistic work.

“Photography is a way of expressing myself and how I see the world. Until 2015 I had no idea I had any artistic talent and I didn’t believe in myself. I had very little self-worth, hence 30 years on the streets. Photography empowers me and hopefully is going to raise awareness for homelessness. This is what it’s about for me.”

Andy held his first exhibition ‘Cardboard and Caviar’ at the Swiss Church in London in December 2015 showing some of the doorways that became home. The exhibition was a great success with exposure in the Evening Standard, BBC London News and Buzzfeed. In 2017 the exhibition was also shown in Zurich, Switzerland.

Andy describes the content of his second photography exhibition: “When you are street homeless you tend to look down and notice things most of the general public don’t see. It strikes a chord with me, why it’s there, how it got there, and I photograph it. It feels like I’m the only person who sees it. Some of these things can be upsetting, but I see it from a homeless person’s point of view. When I see these things I can personally relate to them. For example in Shaftesbury Avenue there is a broken spanner pressed into the tarmac and I bet no one else can see it but me. It reminds me how homeless people are pushed down and become invisible. Once a homeless guy walked past me, it just started to rain, and he left footprints on the wet pavement. I call this photograph The Invisible Homeless.”

Konrad Smoleński: 6CH

6CH, Konrad Smoleński 

The 6CH oscillates around the visual art and sound and proposes a radical approach to this fusion. It’s a 6 channel, site specific, missive audio installation built in a spatially and visually minimalistic way. The primary element of communication in 6CH is the physicality of the sound wave and, consequently, it’s direct contact with the recipient. The resulting haptic sound sculpture focuses on the three-dimensionality of sound as abstract and ephemeral matter. Visually minimal, reduced to a few objects - towers built from loudspeakers, concert sound system and freely scattered audio cables, the installation relies on daylight (most of the time taking place after dusk), thus not providing much of a visual experience. However, this visual character is balanced by the weight and richness of the sound layer. 

30 minute long piece will repeat in a loop all day. The viewer in invited to move inside this "sound sculpture" and by this movement he/she experiences a different configuration of sounds - his/her perception of work is constantly changing. The recipient's activity translates into the final shape of the work - the final mix of the emitted song is made using a ‘moving pair of ears’. The spatiality of this and other Konrad realizations is possible to experience only during the exhibition / activity and escapes the possibility of documentation. The 6CH is designed especially for the Swiss Church and commissioned by JEMP festival.

Three Sound-Sculptures for Choir

Vocal Constructivists present "Three Sound-Sculptures for choir” by Wojtek Blecharz based on Katarzyna Kobro's Spatial Composition no 4,5 and 6. 

This newly commissioned work transforms four sculptures by the constructivist artist Katarzyna Kobro (1898–1951) into musical compositions. The most significant features of Kobro's "Spatial Compositions" such as color, proportions, ratio etc. were translated by the composer into musical structures and sound actions that will be performed/composed by the choir in real time. 

Drawing on the ideas of the Polish interwar avant-garde, performers explore theories of Unism and Functionalism for a site-specific performance in the Swiss Church. The composer Wojtek Blecharz and art curator Kasia Sobucka lead the Vocal Constructivists in a live installation influenced by the text Kobro authored with Władysław Strzemiński, Composing Space: Calculating Space-Time Rhythms (1931). Expanding Unism’s four arts (painting, sculpture, architecture, and typography) to include sound and movement broadens visual art’s ability to achieve unity with the place of its creation. This performance offers 21st-century audiences a way to experience directly the early 20th-century utopian belief in the ability of art to organize life and its functions. 

The Polish Constructivists placed great emphasis on geometrical forms and on modern technologies to access ideal special harmonies. This performance projects these ideas both literally and metaphorically. Using cutting-edge technology, 3D-scanned images of the sculptures will be shown in the performance, with sounding events taking place behind, alongside, and in front of the projections. 

Like music, sculpture impacts air molecules with its physical presence, which makes it particularly well suited to a multisensory spatialized interpretation. The Vocal Constructivists articulate not only the external borders of Kobro’s sculptures but also the inside, made accessible to the audience via the projections. The interior connects with the exterior in an open rhythm that begins with the sculpture, moves out into the space, and finds resonance in the venue. An open rehearsal will allow the public to witness first hand this unprecedented sonic “reading” of sculpture and architecture ahead of the 15th December performance. 

Tickets on the door: £15 

*Commissioned for the JEMP: MECHANICAL an experimental music festival inspired by Polish Constructivism, curated by Kasia Sobucka and designed specifically for the Swiss Church. 
Financed from the funds of the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage of Poland, within the scope of the Multiannual Program INDEPENDENT 2017-2022, as part of the "Cultural Bridges" subsidy program of the Adam Mickiewicz Institute.*
