Founding Curator And Cultural Coordinator Now GalleryKnight Dragon Jan 2014 - Jun 2024Greenwich Peninsula, LondonNOW Gallery creates a public art programme unlike any other, by inviting artists, designers and fashion designers to come up with unprecedented installations. We give creatives the opportunity to explore an unusual space, expand their practice and come up with interactive ideas to draw in both locals and visitors to Greenwich Peninsula. With our diverse programme includes Camille Walala, Alex Chinneck, Molly Goddard, Something & Sons and Kinska and every exhibition has had its own distinctive take and brings in different audiences, The audience numbers are increasing steadily as Galley's visibility increases, helped by the ever growing amount of press the gallery gets. We are creating an ongoing discussion about what public art can be and why it is important.There is also a commitment to creating a permanent cultural legacy on Greenwich Peninsula. With the arrival of The Tide – a sculptural walkway by the renown architects DS+R come a number of interventions. A sixty seater picnic bench, ‘Seafood Disco’, designed by Studio Morison looks towards the Thames Barrier. With four barbecues, a 25 metre long abalone encrusted table top with funfair inspired seating – coconuts feature. This green space brings communities together to cook, gather, eat and river watch. One of our first commissions by Raw Edges was to design seating for Peninsula Square. This has changed the way the square is used. The rush to the O2 is slowed by comfortable concrete sculptural chairs that make people stop and dwell. Working with collaborators has always been key to creating events and encouraging new connections. We work with Dance Umbrella and have featured two staggering performances. Florence Peake and Pepa Ubera, Clare Orme were commissioned to create performances in response to the area. Empathy Museum, Jason Bruges, Neon, Kate Dimbleby, GDIF and many others add to our discourse and celebrate how art, design, music can enliven and make a neighbourhood. -
