Poíesis: An evening with Tom de Freston and Kiran Millwood Hargrave

Join us for a very special evening with artist Tom de Freston and his wife, novelist Kiran Millwood Hargrave. Explore Tom’s solo show Poíesis with a glass of wine in the Museum of Classical Archaeology’s Cast Gallery, followed by a conversation chaired by the Museum’s Director, Professor Carrie Vout.

Previously exhibited at the Varvara Roza Gallery in Mayfair, de Freston’s large-scale paintings engage with the couple’s experience of creative collaboration, pregnancy and loss. This is a rare chance to hear about the paintings’ creation from both their artist and subject, and an opportunity to consider the ways that we might revise the traditional narratives around artist and muse.
