Full Circle - land art installation - Blackstone Point, River Kent estuary, 29 September
2007.
A group of 15 volunteer diggers removed an estimated 30 tonnes of wet sand and mud
to allow an 80 metre-long elliptical trench to be filled with floodwater at high
tide. At the subsequent low water, the elliptical trench was filled by the retreating
tide. When seen from the unique viewing point it appeared as a circle of water reflecting
the sky. The trench remained visible through fourteen tides during the week as it
slipped back into the memory of the sand.

Full Circle 2 - installation on the River Kent Estuary of a visible circle of light
on the sand at dusk and into the night until extinguished by the incoming tide. Built
on the same site and scale as Full Circle.

Swimming Home. Open water wild swimming across the lakes and tarns of Cumbria - a
collaborative experiential/performance project. The journey began in the northwest
Lake District and meandered through tarns and lakes until arriving ‘home’ near Kendal
with a social swim of invited members of the local community to join the final swim.
During the course of the journey, sculptures and other works of art were created
according to our principles.

Th'Owd Towser Show - June 2011 - Daisy Lane, Holmfirth
This group exhibition brought a selection of contemporary artists to the Grade 1
listed heritage site, once used as the village church lock up, mortuary, ambulance
station and fire station. Perhaps the oldest building in Holmfirth dating from circa
1597, Th’Owd Towser (The House of Correction) houses some unexpected things reminiscent
of the building’s former uses. Artists were selected from an international open call
to show new work in response to this unique building, with the lower floor showing
an artists’ film programme throughout the festival.
Curated by Alice Bradshaw and Vanessa Haley
