Lucy Rose & Emma van Straaten: Beneath the Surface

Obsession. Desire. Rage. Emotions women are expected to swallow and hide from the world. But rather than disappearing, they instead bubble away under the surface until they inevitably explode out with dangerous force. This struggle between society’s rules and the reality of feeling is prevalent in both Lucy Rose’s twisting horror, The Lamb, and Emma van Straaten’s disquieting This Immaculate Body. Join them for a tantalising discussion about obsession, deception, and primal emotion. Chaired by Catherine Wilson Garry.
