About

La Horla Collective organises multimedia events to showcase the more alternative side of Brighton's local talents.

Expect a fantastic evening of arts, visuals and live music, all under the same roof and more importantly a chance to mingle with some of Brighton's most creative minds!

Horla

An immersive journey through images and music like no other, exploring all aspects of the human psyche - from fears and repulsion to the most beautiful moments created by the human mind.
It will be like experiencing a soundtrack created on the spot and as it's improvised , every instalment is always different from the last.

With strong influences from the 70s/80s Horror and B-movies , expect vintage sounds and images which will trigger a nostalgic trip to the glory days of this genre.

Yak Salute

A collective of experienced and highly-creative Brighton-based musicians from across UK, New Zealand, Australia and Syria and influenced by everyone from Dead Can Dance, The Orb, The Bays, Bicep and Kaya Project, through to Transglobal Underground and Sidiki Dembele, Yak Salute are currently finalising an exciting and mind-bendingly powerful live set, and are looking for a variety of live and festival bookings from March 2024 onwards. No set will ever be the same.

Linden

Welcoming you into the garden of your subconscious with vivid imagery, powerful lyrics and hand blended perfumes that leave you wanting to delve further into their mysterious world. Brighton based songwriter Linden provides intricately interwoven conceptual works with complementary visual arts and sensory experiences. Dripping with mystery Lindens works echo that of David Lynch begging the listener to create their own narrative and journey through her conceptual garden.

Art:

Caylon La Mantia

Caylon's work is the time she gives to herself to sit down and do something she truly loves. That time is rare. The paintings are the result. There is no greater meaning to the work other than a quest for and celebration of beauty in every aspect of life. This particular series explores a world which came to light through a sequence of recurring dreams, repeating and connecting to each other over many years, revealing characters and narrative that culminated in a complete story during a period of 28 days solitary hiking the kunglseden trail in Swedish Lapland.

Amy Allen

Brighton based artist Amy allen combines inspiration from her Kosovan heritage, renaissance art, and her forever exceeding love for surrealism to create multi scale absurdist paintings. Studying illustration at Brighton University, working part time as a tattoo artist, and spending excess time in personal artistic endeavours, she attempts to synthesize a style that invokes a sense of ''visual intimacy'' in which the spectator can relate to in one way or another.

Rumi's Bazaar

Funky and eclectic home decor accents, both homemade as well as sourced from around the world. Items include candles, planters, vases/incense holders, cushions, and more.

Good Witch Offerings (handmade arts)

Originating from the Celtic coastlines of Galicia, Spain, where pagan traditions and rituals run deep, 'Good Witch Offerings' offers meticulously handcrafted curiosities and small treasures that harmonize traditional Occult symbolism with a modern Pop Art sensibility.
