Site-specific installation for Falmouth’s Splash Festival: September 2012

Posted on by walshfm

I’m delighted that my proposal for a site-specific installation has been commissioned along with the work of five other South-West artists, as part of the forthcoming Splash Festival from 7-16 September 2012. Still finalising details but my piece will involve light, text and archive images related to scientific and cultural developments in Falmouth in the 1800’s. The installations have been selected by Louise Connell, Director of Falmouth Art Gallery and Charlotte Williams, artist & curator.

Splash is funded by the Falmouth BID and the festival will feature guest appearances by writer Michael Morpurgo and artist/writer Michael Foreman, as well as the Edinburgh Fringe award-winning play Allotment and artist David Kemp in diverse events such as a Book Fest, living heritage walks, contemporary dance and theatre. There’s more information about the programme on the blog:
