We weren't prepared for this (weather)

About

We weren't prepared for this (weather). A conversation between you and me. A reflection of the time spent this year. We adapt to the ever-changing weather. Moments are lost, fast and slow. The work contemplates the reliability of memory in relation to the encounter; an exploration of the relation between studio artefact and film archive. Looking inwards at local weathers. An entanglement of space. 

Lydia Hamblet (b.1995) is a London-based artist whose work is concerned with the everyday and universal experience of the weather. Her work takes the form of installations, public interventions and large scale prints for both public spaces and galleries.  Lydia recently graduated with an MA in Print at the Royal College of Art and received her BA in Illustration from Camberwell College of Arts in 2017. Recent group exhibitions include London Grads Now at Saatchi Gallery, London (2020), RCA Graduation Show at Kristin Hjellegjerde Gallery, London (2020) and Public Notice: An Exhibition around East London.
