This month’s film

Documentary on gender violence and legal justice in Cameroon.

Join us for the final In the Balance event “Renewal” - an inspiring artist talk with Anna Berry, who will be sharing her creative practice and the making of her site-specific installation for Longton Exchange.

Anna’s work transforms public spaces with tactile, ephemeral interventions that shift perception and spark connection. Her installation Renewal reflects on regeneration and fragility - personal and urban - encouraging us to slow down, notice, and reimagine our relationship with place.

This is a special chance to hear directly from Anna about her creative process, community-focused approach, and how her work sits at the intersection of art, activism, and environment.

We’ll also be celebrating the end of another creative year with seasonal refreshments and warm conversation among artists, partners, and friends. 

About the Artist

Anna Berry is a UK-based artist working across installation, sculpture, and participatory projects. Often responding to urban landscapes, she uses delicate, handmade materials to create immersive environments exploring impermanence, control, and engagement.
