Photography as Performance II - 2026
Inspired by Joy Gregory’s Catching Flies with Honey, MA Photography students came together at the Whitechapel Gallery to explore identity, memory, material culture, and sustainability - themes at the heart of Gregory’s engagement with postcolonial consciousness and material storytelling.
Through reused materials, performance, and installation, the body and everyday objects became sites of historical and cultural inquiry, unfolding across four Creative Labs centred on two themes:
• Portrait: History and Memory
• The Object: Traces of a Journey
Concept facilitated by artist and educator Diego Ferrari.
In partnership with the Whitechapel Gallery, London - Director of Participation and the MA in Photography, Kingston University. Supported by Inclusive Curriculum and Education for Sustainable Futures Bursaries
Kingston University.
