Join the East Wing Biennial team for an evening of conversation with artists Amy Gillies, Steffi Klenz and Maya Silverberg about their individual practices.
RE:VISION In Conversation is a platform for discussion, contemplation and discourse with and between the artists featured in RE:VISION. Each event in this series of six panels will take place at Vernon Square and will be chaired by RE:VISION Director Romy Brill Allen. These conversations about artistic practice are designed to promote community and open conversation.
Amy Gillies is a contemporary artist who lives and works in London. Across various forms of media, her work utilises the possibilities of quotation and collage to connect lines of inquiry between the past and present. Pre-existing and found materials are often juxtaposed, repositioned, and rewritten to engage with contemporary social and political dialogue. is a contemporary artist who lives and works in London.

Maya Silverberg harnesses her background as a traditionally-trained trompe l’œil painter to create self-reflexive works that investigate painting’s status as both fine and decorative art. Guided by the concept of illegibility and the iterative physicality of making, she constructs works that exist between image and object.
Steffi Klenz is an artist and academic based in London. She has exhibited her work across the UK and internationally. Klenz completed the innovative London Borough of Culture Project (2019-2022), exhibited as part of the 2022 London Festival of Architecture and launched her first permanent public artwork “Tensed Muscles” in London in 2022.
Organised as part of the programming for the 16th East Wing Biennial RE:VISION.
