Growth
Growth will be an intimate performance questioning the intersections of pain, pleasure, and femininity. Witness a beautiful and challenging durational relationship between Amy, Rhiannon, dozens of roses, and a box of surgical staplers.
Artist's Bios
Amy Kingsmill
Since moving to London in 2009 to study I have been exploring its underground scene in tandem with feeding my artistic practice. Here I have been able to cross fertilise queer imagery with fine art aesthetics to create arresting endurance works which solicit the body as a platform and often use dressing as a form of three dimensional surrealist collage. As a recent graduate in Fine Art at Central Saint Martins I have performed at Franko B's Untouchables at Mori and Stien gallery and at Peep Anatomy at Edinburgh Fringe. I have performed at the infamous Torture Garden Club and presented my paper, Pervarts along side Annie Sprinkle at the Performing Porn symposium at Performance Space.
Rhiannon Aarons

She is a recipient of The Marilyn Werby Endowment Grant, HOGAR Travel Grant, and organizer of Live Art Development Associations Methodologies in Body Art Symposium. Rhiannon compiled, published, and co-edited Bob Flanagans _The Book of Medicine_ with Sheree Rose. In addition to her series of self-published books, her work has been included in Senses of Cinema, RipRap Literary Journal, and Culture on the Offensive, _Emergency Index_, and the upcoming _Rated Rx: Sheree Rose with and after Bob Flanagan_.
