Lustratio is an experimental collaborative body of work produced in residence at General Practice Studios in response to Lustratio (2024). This exhibition sees the film’s original collaborators come together once more to expand upon the film’s themes of (re)birth, magick, sex, nature, purification, femininity, and ritual.
Prints, props, paintings, and an olfactory environment have been produced and curated to respond to the space and the conversations that have arisen in lieu of filming.
Stemming from research into symbols of sex and fertility, the original concept behind the film centred it contextually around the life of nomadic women in 20,000 BCE, animal paintings in sites such as Lascaux and Chauvet, and life in the ice age. The show features new and existing work by Lucy Haworth, Luna Ælflæd Shinkins, Will René Thomson, and Amy Wood.
We are thrilled to support 3rd-year BA Fine Art students from the University of Lincoln as they transform the space into an extension of their studio practice. Don’t miss this immersive and intimate experience.
Opening night: Friday 7th March 5-8pm
