THE FULLNESS BETWEEN SHADOWS

Exhibition:
📆21 Nov 2025 - 21 Feb 2026
🕰Tues - Sat 10am - 5pm
📍Harbour House Ground Floor Gallery

'The Fullness Between Shadows' is a solo exhibition from Plymouth based artist Ashanti Hare. Drawing on their Windrush heritage, Hare explores memory, ancestry, and the connections between people, place, and spirit through sculpture, movement, and performance.

The exhibition’s title comes from Bakongo Cosmology, reflecting life as an ongoing cycle “between the shadows” and inviting reflection on the fullness of life and the presence of ancestry.

The exhibition features large-scale wearable sculptures and assemblages made from found and everyday materials, inspired by West African and Caribbean traditions, as well as local Kingsbridge flora and wildlife.

Community collaboration is central to the project. Hare worked with adults we have supported through our partnership with social prescribing in workshops co-led with Lauren Pomfret, exploring ritual gestures and carnival-inspired movement. These performances, filmed by Oliver Sutherland, are projected onto the sculpture Sunsum, bringing it to life with the energy of participants.

🎨 There will be a free drop-in mask-making activity for all ages

Find out more about Ashanti's exhibition on our website [harbourhouse.org.uk/whats-on]

This exhibition is supported by the Henry Moore Foundation.

🎉Join us for the Opening Celebration on Fri 21 Nov, 6pm - 8pm. All Welcome and no booking needed!

A huge, heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined us this weekend for our double celebration - the launch of @cassinellimills and the unveiling of our inaugural research project, Pamela Colman Smith: Resonances of Being.
Over the course of the two‑day installation, we spoke with hundreds of visitors about their personal connections to Pamela Colman Smith’s art and life.

It was an absolute joy to engage with so many people, passionate about reactivating Colman Smith’s archive and we are deeply grateful for the enthusiasm and support shown toward our ambitions for this project.

Pamela Colman Smith: Resonances of Being
Unfolding Archives as Spiritual Practice

SARAH-JOY FORD • ASHANTI HARE • INGRID POLLARD • ALEXIS SOUL-GRAY • MONICA- SHANTA • CORAL WOODBURY with LALLY MACBETH

✨Saturday 27 and Sunday 28 September 2025, @trevowhelston

A collage of folklore, cultural tradition and spiritual practices, the artists in this exhibition encourage us to mine the archives for encounters that both connect and expand our human experience.

Unfolding the archives of Pamela Colman Smith is a challenge; a figure who moves between, and transcends, binaries and boundaries. This event assembles contemporary artist-women and non-binary artists whose practices traverse the spectrum of Colman Smith’s creativity and life. Engaging in cross-temporal creativity, ancestral healing and archival practices, we are invited to find human connection through what Doreen Massey describes, not as discrete time-space envelopes, but as a continuum of human experience. 

Following the recent launch, Cassinelli Mills presents a new artist representation approach and its first manifestation; an unveiling of a one-off weekend of contemporary art and performance to activate cross-temporal connections between contemporary artists and the complex archive of Pamela Colman Smith (1878-1951).

Colman Smith was an artist, occultist, writer, publisher and performer, but one who is primarily remembered for being the illustrator of the Rider-Waite Tarot deck. Colman Smith’s archive is vast and fragmented. Born in London, she traveled extensively including North America and Jamaica and lived in the UK’s South West for around 30 years. She was buried in an unmarked grave in Bude, Cornwall. 

The group exhibition is open to the general public from 10-4pm on Saturday 27 and Sunday 28 September. Free entry. Address: Helston Old Chapel, Meneage Road, Cornwall, TR13 9PJ.

• Residency: Day I (Yesterday)

It was mostly planning and reading but here is a Cane Toad drawing I started 🐸

Eyes felt like they were melting a bit but wanted to challenge myself to draw something instead of tracing for convenience. It’s been a minute.

Started creating a bunch of textiles/tapestries that’ll be used to construct sculptural works for an upcoming exhibition. ✨

Illustrations are from Urania’s Mirror: A view of the Heavens by Sidney Hall from 1824, originally authored by Reverend Richard Rouse Bloxam and were based on/plagiarised from Alexander Jamieson’s - A Celestial Atlas 1822.

Also featured are my usual watery mark making motifs and sigils made from poems and personal spells
