From artists and pharmacists to gardeners and nurses, gestures convey meaning, configure relationships and are in themselves forms of cognition – ways of knowing and being in the world.

The exhibition is one outcome of a year-long exploration of gesture and embodied knowledge across the Bethlem Hospital site. The project has been supported by the Bethlem Occupational Therapy Department and Maudsley Charity. Throughout the exhibition, there will be cross-site events and interventions further examining the theme of gesture.
