Event information

Leslie Deere

Modern Conjuring for Amateurs takes its title from the vintage magic book by J.C.Cannell, a popular guide to learning tricks, conjuring and ventriloquism. Deere’s performance combines her performing arts dance background with her sonic arts training, as she creates a shared experience, conjuring up sound and visuals with gesture. The performance is part of a double bill with brownsierra.

Leslie Deere is a London-based artist. She holds a BA Honours degree in Sonic Art under Hugh Davies at Middlesex University and an MA in Communications Art & Design (Acoustic Images pathway) under Jon Wozencroft of Touch Records from the Royal College of Art. Commissions include sound installations for Kew Gardens, SoundUK, London Fashion Week and the Whitstable Biennale.
