Beyond the Spider (Listening to Houses Together)

April 14, 2026
“For who is prepared to go beyond the spider, the ladybug and the mouse, to a point of identification with things forgotten in the corner?”
— Gaston Bachelard

Listening Beyond the Spider is an evening quietly engaging with all that is at the edges, or just beyond, in a house. Noticing the almost imperceptible that floats just out of reach, as delicate as the spider’s own web. Leaning in to corners, nooks, cupboards, cavities, where voices, sounds and experiences are reflected and filtered and maybe even captured by insulation, brick, plasterboard and layers of wallpaper and paint.

Honoured to be invited into my good friend and artist, Ju Row Farr’s house in Brighton, as part of her Wider Ranch Saloon evenings.

Contact me for tickets. Limited numbers as it’s an intimate event.
