Two performances not to be missed during this year’s Open.
Same Moon Different Suns by Jennifer Ng
Sat 8 Nov 2025 7:00 PM – 9:00 PM
Copeland Gallery, SE15 3SN
We are delighted to present Jennifer Ng’s performance Same Moon Different Suns as part of The London Group Open 2025. Her work was selected through The London Group’s open call.
Every day, I live my time thrice – now, in the past, and in the future. They said that I shouldn’t be pointing at the moon, for the sheer fear of getting a cut on the ear. That’s all they said, no more, no less. “Which moon”, I asked? “What about the sun?”. “Which sun?” I asked again. I am still waiting for the silence.
This work was developed as a response to a dislocated form of existence, as the artist explores notions of distance, unsettledness and uncertainty stemming from the subjective experience of living different realities, and existing across geographical time zones. In this durational work, Jennifer Ng will focus on creating indexical imprints of such inhabitation in real time.
The audience is invited to come and go as they please, spending time with the performance for as long as they wish during the two hour duration. The performance will take place amongst The London Group Open 2025 exhibition.

Above Fire Below the Lake by Partial Wave Child
Sat 22 Nov 2025 7:00 PM – 9:00 PM
Copeland Gallery, SE15 3SN
Please join us for a special late opening of The London Group Open 25, alongside a concert performance of ‘Above Fire Below the Lake’ by Partial Wave Child in the exhibition space. Partial Wave Child is a collaboration between audiovisual artist and composer Jockel Liess LG and composer Geoixos.
*Above Fire Below the Lake* is an improvised electroacoustic performance for augmented flute by Partial Wave Child. Jockel Liess and Geoixos use a purpose-built software environment to extend the flute’s capabilities, creating a seamless tapestry of live-processed, manipulated, and sampled sounds.
The performance explores a wide range of flute techniques, from breath tones to high pitch partials, blending them with live sampled electronic textures. Guided by a score outlining 12 modal areas, this piece is an indeterminate journey through a dynamic musical terrain, weaving rhythms and tonalities fluidly into an ever-evolving soundscape. Take a moment to exist alongside this piece of performance art that fuses musical concepts in seeming opposition, transforming the space into one of unpredictable beauty and tension.
A wondrously meditative experience that last for around 30 minutes where audiences are encouraged to slip into a trance that exports them into a new sensory realm, both foreign and yet extraordinarily intimate. A work that altered the edges of perception and leaves listeners staring over the corners of reality.
