As our first visitor to the space, not quite knowing what format the evening might take, we were all somewhat nervous about Prem’s visit. The nerves didn’t last long, it ended up being an evening of very interesting discussions.
Initially Prem introduced their practice, discussing education at the RA schools, eventually finding good representation through Philida Reid and their various gallery exhibitions.
Prem’s practice is often involved with the considered use and alteration of found materials, taking into account their relations to identity, politics and their wider social context. Discussing our own practices with Prem was very constructive, thinking through the materials and imagery we use through this referential language of materiality. William McLucas
