Shimmering Horizons with Meera Shakti Osborne
What do you see in your future? How do you imagine time passing? Is it possible to name these things simply?
Join artist Meera Shakti Osborne at @thearthouseuk to explore your own shimmering horizons through painting, writing and conversation. Together, we'll reflect on personal futures, memory and possibility as part of our exhibition What Art Can Change.
Meera is a multimedia artist and youth worker from London. Her practice explores landscapes as sites of reckoning and renewal, imagining apocalypses and utopias that exist side by side.

Benaiah is a British-Khaya multidisciplinary artist based in Huddersfield. His practice, Town Island, moves across drawing, painting, light, cloth, sculpture, oral history and movement.
