Walking A Cappella invites visitors to consider the landscape in unexpected ways, folding together place, time, and memory.
This major two-site exhibition centres on two new works that explore the edges of the land: looking down into the geology beneath our feet and out to the shifting border of the sea.
At Newlyn Art Gallery, the galleries will be opened out to the sunlight. For the first time The Studio and The Link will be exhibition spaces. A new work: Gyre is installed across the full length of the sea-facing window, incorporating glass that the artist has made using sand and seaweed from local beaches. In our main gallery, daylight will pour through the lantern ceiling, illuminating works in paper and glass.
At our sister site The Exchange, a group of masks in glass will precede an immersive three-screen film, A Book of Holes.
