          EXHIBITION PORTFOLIO 2

                   

                              PALLANT HOUSE CHICHESTER

In 2017/2018 an opportunity arose to take part in a student Interventions project  organised through GBMC with Pallant House Gallery in Chichester. Left to the local council, Pallant House is a Grade 2 listed Queen Anne building which became a gallery in 1982.

My work at the time was beginning to look at detritus and how to use it, from an ecological, environmental historical and playful point of view.

It was also the start of my musings on death and looking to our past for guidance and connections to the present.  I submitted my application which was accepted by the director Simon Martin and his team, and the Pallant House Board. 

The exhibition Interventions was mounted in early 2018. A trail of interventions was placed in the old house section of the gallery. Visitors were provided with a map to locate the work as they perused the permanent and visiting collections. 

     COLLECTED STONE INGREDIENTS

Here are the beginnings of my collection of workable detritus.

The stones developed were based on cairns left by walkers at a special site in the landscape, or left by family marking a grave.
