All At Sea

Private View: 13th June 6-9PM

Exhibition Continues: 14-16th June 2019 1-6PM

Artists Maria Macc and Hannah Scott, explore our relationship with the sea through a collaborative, site-specific installation, addressing the impact of consumer culture on the natural environment.

Personal interests in ecology and environmental responsibility are considered through an installation bringing together insights over a year long dialogue between the artists. The scale of the sea and the enormity of our consumption is considered through narratives from Hannah’s journey on one of the world’s largest container ships as opposed to the experiences Maria shared with the fishermen of Lizard Point, Cornwall.
