Welcome to KNOCKvologan Studio,

a vibrant hub for creative research and environmental stewardship, KNOCKvologan Studio is founded and curated by artists Miek Zwamborn and Rutger Emmelkamp. We merge art, literature, music, food, gardening, and nature to foster new perspectives on the relationship between humans and the living world.

At KNOCKvologan Studio, we deeply engage with the land and culture that surrounds us. By balancing local stories with global voices, we build a creative community that inspires new ways of thinking, living, and coexisting with our environment.

Currently / Upcoming:

16th November, 7pm, St Luke’s, London.

Time passes, leaving footprints behind her. Roots twist and deepen, leaves unfurl, turn orange, fall, and decay, tents are pitched and unpitched, the tide changes. 

Rufus Isabel Elliot’s new work for piano trio imagining the wavering songs that belong intrinsically to a bivvy place amongst the cliffs of Tireragan – songs that transform a place in the wild into a sleeping place. Featuring visuals by KNOCKvologan Studio, it hopes to bring that place alive in the hall of LSO St Luke’s.

The première of the music and video is on November 16th performed by the London Symphony Orchestra in St Luke’s.

Past:

On 28th September we had the honour to host two exceptional guests: Alison Phipps (UNESCO Chair in Refugee Integration) and Tawona Sithole (Writer in Residence at the University of Glasgow). They shared their insights with warmth and humor, supported by the Ross of Mull Poets.

THIS IS ENOUGH.
We are taking part in This is Enough, an ongoing project curated by Nina Pope and Karen Guthry. This project explores the natural abundance and biodiversity of Aros Walled Garden in Tobermory through mindful observation and gentle intervention.
