From the 19th September to the 2nd October six artists - Anna Wiley, Emily Robyn Archer, Hazel Mc Cague, Kari Cahill, Liliane Puthod & Margie Jean Lewis will engage with the landscape at Brow Head, Mizen Peninsula, West Cork. During the time spent on the tombolo headland we will develop and produce site responsive sculptural installations. Geography, locality, topography, heritage, community and history will play a role in this artistic engagement; drawing from the local and national history of the peninsula, studying the relationship between the land masses and ocean, and integrating knowledge from the surrounding communities. Artistically our aim is to drive artists and the experience of art outwards, into the wilderness forging deeper connections with Ireland's natural landscape, resulting in a more dynamic work flow that will produce unique and informed sculptural artworks. It's an experiment to question how art in the great outdoors can stand alone as a valuable cultural activity.
