MESKLA | Brewyon Drudh
MESKLA | Brewyon Drudh is a project led by Sovay Berriman, taking place in Redruth, Jun — Dec 2022. The final exhibition concludes the project.
MESKLA | Brewyon Drudh (Mussel Gathering | Precious Fragments) is an expanded sculpture project taking place in Redruth, Cornwall, between June & December 2022. 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 project, 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
Please join us for the exhibition opening event. 5-9pm, Friday 25th November, at The Old School House, Krowji, Redruth
The exhibition will continue until Saturday 10th December, open 11am - 4pm Wednesdays to Sundays.
