Nathania Hartley | 'Heron' Performance

Performance artist Nathania Hartley will be performing at the opening evening of 'Heron' on Thursday 1 May. Featuring spoken word, the performance responds directly to the letter 'The Herons' written by John Berger to Subcomandante Marcos and the themes within it. 

Nathania Hartley lives and works in London. She creates live encounters and tiny acts of disruption that involve people and place, in order to playfully make us reconsider our everyday, whilst making spoken and written word hit a little harder. 

Often the art is a walk together, aiming to get participants to simply look again at their surroundings. Hartley explores the increasing privatisation of our streets and commons, and how our sense of togetherness and belonging is affected by the impact of the spaces and places that surround us. 

She is a member of the peer-led alternatie art education group and collective AltMFA.
