Artist Steve Perfect will be the first artist to work with grove this year. He will be in residence the week 9 - 13 July, with an event to share emerging work, 15.30 - 17.30, Saturday 14 July - all are welcome.
In September 2017 grove curator and artist Barbara Dougan worked on site, continuing a series of explorations of the grove site by the last three resident artists. Two films and an interactive structure were installed for a public event on 23 September, see work in Projects. Visitors responded:
Thoughtful, reflective work on the meaning of places and objects. Highly poignant.
A great presentation of work. Really professional and evocative work, rich with ideas and poetry.
I have so enjoyed each of the works shown today but particularly the film capturing the loss of your extended garden. Beautifully sensitive and full of a relationship with a space, replete with layered memory. Gently moving.
grove is a flexible, supportive opportunity for artists to concentrate on making new work and test ideas. The purpose is to enable artists to concentrate for a short period on developing or trialing work, with the use of a large garden, project space and digital equipment. Artists are invited to work with grove and are provided with accommodation, working space, promotion and an event. Hosted artists are not asked to necesssarily complete work or to mount an exhibition. Emerging ideas and proposals for work can be tested and shared with an invited audience in any way appropriate. The project space is particularly suitable for immersive installation, film and sound. Follow grove @grove_projects.
