Want to move more freely, more consciously, more joyfully?

Who Am I When I’m With You? The debut solo show from Coventry born artist and Assembly House resident Kai Brooks examines human connection through the medium of paint.
“This last year, more than any other, l've felt life change so quickly, people coming and going - new faces. Missing faces that aren't around so often anymore.

Either way, every minute that you sat opposite me as I painted will be held on that canvas.”
