Event description
Join us for this one-day symposium held in association with the Trinity Buoy Wharf Drawing Prize 2026 at Trinity Buoy Wharf in London on Thursday 17th September from 11am to 5pm.
Drawing | Undercurrents will explore drawing and its place as a practice, and its capacity to raise and address complex issues, feelings and different perspectives to the surface and into wider consciousness. The symposium offers an inclusive and dynamic exploration of drawing – that combines hearing from drawing experts and artists who have drawing at the heart of their practice - and will include active drawing sessions.
Convened by Anita Taylor the symposium will include presentations and drawing sessions led by a host of inspiring contributors, including Alice Angus, Siân Bowen, Chloe Briggs, Matthew Burrows MBE, Curtis Holder, M.Lohrum.
Please bring along your sketchbook, notebooks and dry drawing materials - and settle in for this immersive day exploring drawing in its many forms in the context of Trinity Buoy Wharf and the Trinity Buoy Wharf Drawing Prize 2025 exhibition. There will be opportunity to visit the exhibition during the day.
The Trinity Buoy Wharf Drawing Prize 2026 is open to the public at Trinity Buoy Wharf from Thursday 17th September - Sunday 4th October and is open daily from 11am to 6pm. Free entry.
This symposium is kindly supported by the Trinity Buoy Wharf Trust, which enables us to subsidise the costs of participation for all attendees.
Devised by Drawing Projects UK for the Trinity Buoy Wharf Drawing Prize 2026 and held in association with The Big Draw.
