This exhibition marks five years since the Covid-19 pandemic, and the series of lockdowns that took place in the UK. When the first lockdown was announced, photographer Katrina Campbell, started photographing her neighbours on their doorsteps, out of a curiosity to find out how they were really getting on. She was surprised at how keen people were to share their stories, being remarkably open and candid about their hopes and fears.

At the time, the photographs and stories were shared on social media, and as the project grew, she was inundated by messages from people wanting to get involved. By September 2020, there were over 100 photographs and stories from the local area, covering Grange Park, Bush Hill Park, Palmers Green, Winchmore Hill, Southgate, Enfield and Edmonton. The full set was self-published in a book called ‘When we all stayed at home’ and it is a rich, honest, heartfelt and at times emotional record of a unique moment in our collective history.

Step inside this exhibition, look at the portraits, read and listen to the stories, and be transported back to that period that we all lived through. No one may wish to revisit the sense of isolation and uncertainty that accompanied lockdown but perhaps it’s worth remembering the things we learnt to appreciate more keenly - the value of human contact, a stronger sense of community, the opportunity to pause, the restorative powers of being in nature.

10am-11am: Move to Knit

Begin with free-flowing movement that gradually guides your body toward the meditative practice of finger knitting in this unique workshop. We will explore gentle movement to awaken your body's natural rhythms and learn simple techniques of finger knitting to create textured strands using just your hands.

Then, we will collaborate with others to weave the strands into a collective creation and identify possible connections with the other participants.

11.30am-12.30pm: Knit to Move

A workshop that starts with learning a simple practice of finger knitting, you'll discover how these repetitive hand motions naturally expand into expressive, full-body movement.

Watch as repetitive knitting motions inspire your entire body, creating a meditative flow that extends from your fingers to your full embodiment. Opportunities for collaboration will enhance our shared creative experience and foster new creations, as well as possible interconnections between participants.

No prior experience necessary – just bring your curiosity! All materials provided.

Age range: children 6+ and adults
