Move Away from the Aubergine
Drop in for a free 15-minute talk to unearth the hidden stories of the Royal Academy.
Join us to explore Move Away from the Aubergine, the latest display in the Weston Studios. Through video and sculpture, RA Schools graduate Esmeralda Valencia Lindström explores spaces across the RA from the perspective of animals, plants and the architecture itself. Move Away from the Aubergine presents alternative views: ways of looking that are close-up, below, above and to-the-side. Proposing movement as a starting point for empathy, these works seek to lead us into the routes, gestures and vibrations of other species and materials.
