MESKLA | Brewyon Drudh

MESKLA | Brewyon Drudh (Mus­sel Gath­er­ing | Pre­cious Frag­ments) is an expand­ed sculp­ture project, by Sovay Berriman

This multi-platform art work uses sculpture and conversation to explore contemporary Cornish cultural identity & its relationship with heritage, land and extraction industries, to include tourism

Conversations are vital to MESKLA, and will take place throughout considering issues of authenticity, fractured culture, the links between identity, land and labour, indigeneity, language and intangible culture. .

Through the MESKLA projest Sovay will actively engage with people, seeking and recording their views on identity and Cornwall, and considering how what we discuss relates to broader contexts - historically, nationally and globally. These discussions will be woven into a final sculptural installation that will be exhibited in Redruth.
