Mabel Arce live painting at the The Bowie Lounge

Krowji-based painter Mabel Arce will be taking part in two events over the next few weeks,  live painting as part of ‘The Bowie Lounge’ at Apollo50 2019 Festival 20th July and Port Eliot festival 25th-28th July.

“The Bowie Lounge is an artistic response to the work of David Bowie in music, word, dance and art. Taking the late-60’s Beckenham ‘Arts Labs’ which David was involved in as their inspiration, the Bowie Lounge perform a selection of his songs combined with readings, poetry, dance and live painting and photography. The result is a unique celebration of a man who inspired so many people over the years, performed by a company of exceptional Cornish-based musicians and artists.”

Mabel will be painting three large 2mx2.5m canvases, giving her only three songs per canvas.
