Artist in Residence: Emma Bennett

Lingua Franca

During 2010, Arnolfini presents a series of exhibitions and events related to the idea of Lingua Franca: looking at intermediary language, linguistic translation and the subjectivity of language.

As part of Lingua Franca there is also an online project _feralC_ by mez (2010).

Emma Bennett is a London-based performance maker and artist. Her work explores the physicality of speech and the strange complexities of language. Each of her performances is built on an act of grappling - be it with difficult words or unwieldy objects. During her week long residency at Arnolfini, as part of the Lingua Franca season, Emma will be exploring the often simple or childish images which are used to illustrate philosophical concepts.

Meet the artist on Thurs 15 Apr at 7.30pm.
