Current Projects
A British Council Artists' International Development Fund grant enabled Ruth and Stuart to research their project Fabric: Silk Road , a cultural, travel and ethnographic project involving exchanging silk from the silk weaving companies in Sudbury with silk manufacturers and museums in China. They made a month-long trip to China in October 2018, meeting their Chinese partner Artall Cultural Industries, visiting sericulture plants, silk mills and museums, the travelogue of their journey can be found here.
The proposed second part of the project includes a journey along the Silk Road from Xi'an, China back to the UK, visiting silk mills, making a film and colllecting silk samples along the route in 2021. The film will be shown at venues along the English Silk Road, with a Q & A and silk handling and there will be an accompanying touring exhibiton.

We Are The Weather, an arts and health research project by Stuart Bowditch and Ruth Philo, explores internal and external weather and connections with mood and mental health. It uses the Manchester Colour Wheel, devised by Professor Peter Whorwell and Doctor Helen Carruthers to initiate conversations about mental health and explore ways of developing a sense of equilibrium and wellbeing in connection with support offered by a range of mental health organisations and providers.
An initial residency at the Aldeburgh Beach Lookout, Suffolk in 2017 explored colour, light and sound with participants on the beach. The external weather was brought into the Lookout through a camera obscura, a cyanometer was used to assess sky colour and daily weather recorded by participants as painted postcards. They also registered their internal weather or mood using the Manchester Colour Wheel. The colours from the colour wheel were translated into light and sound with a projection of a light piece from the Lookout Tower at night, in effect exchanging the internal and external weather.

Mycorrhiza is here employed as a framework to explore the ecosystems and survival strategies within creative and organisational spheres. This exhibition explores the connective filaments that interweave creative networks by exploring sex, hibernation, deep time and breakdown. Mycorrhiza and Extancy draw parallels between ecology and politics, the many as one, the wood-wide-web, systems of decomposition and recycling. Mycelium is used to detoxify polluted industrial spaces as it has the ability to flourish in uninhabitable environments. The non-commercial arts in this country similarly operate in – and are shaped by -– a hostile environment, this exhibition and the current issue of the Sluice magazine is a celebration of the sectors continued extancy.

Ruth Philo The Colour in Anything at M2 Gallery, @ 2c Kings Grove, London SE15 2NB, 23 May - 4 July 2019.
A series of paintings that begin with walking, as a sensory process, feeling, seeing, hearing, thinking … noticing aspects of place, terrain, colour, light, temperature and weather. A dialogue between thoughts and senses through the experience that continues into painting, instinctive, unconscious and personal. Rather than depicting the world the paintings convey a sensory experience through abstraction, using the language of colour, surface, and gesture as touch to evoke feeling and memory.

This Year's Model part I, Annual Members Show 2018: Does the Body Rule the Mind? ... Studio 1.1 Gallery, 57A Redchurch Street, London E2 7DJ, 5 - 28 January 2018.
Duck or rabbit? Old crone or beautiful woman. The games the mind and eye can play are notorious. And then there's muscle memory. Are de Kooning's last paintings (made while supposedly of unsound mind) invalid? Someone has certainly decided they have less 'value' on the art market? Or are they just the most beautiful things he has ever produced? Is there a duality? A contradiction? Or is it just where you start from? Where do you want to get to? Well I wouldn't start from here ...
'But we cannot cling
to the old dreams anymore
no we cannon cling
to those dreams
Does the body rule the mind
or does the mind rule the body?
I dunno...'
