This spring, the London Museum of Water & Steam unveils Tender Machines: Holding paradox, a striking new exhibition by artist and physicist Dr Jasmine Pradissitto, curated by Richard Hore.

Museum’s first artist-in-residence, the exhibition transforms the Museum with large-scale installations, sculptures and paintings that celebrate the Museum’s industrial past and history of Victorian innovation and its vision for a sustainable future through its ‘Steaming into Sustainability’ programme.

Set among the Museum’s monumental Victorian steam pumping engines, once crucial to London’s clean water supply, Tender Machines features art works that juxtapose rusted metal with delicate organic forms, repurposed mechanical objects from the Museum’s behind-the-scenes workshop with natural found materials, and science with art.

Atmospheric soundscapes creating an immersive experience in an exhibition that reimagines humanity’s relationship with nature and technology to restore balance to the planet.

Dr Pradissitto, a physicist and artist who is a pioneer in using innovative materials like pollution-absorbing ceramics, invites visitors to reflect on how we power the world in the future. Learn more about her work by visiting her website.

The exhibition takes place through the Museum’s site and is included as part of an admission ticket.
