We are pleased to welcome artist Stephen Turner who will talk about his work including his current project The Exbury Egg, a year long public art project throughout which Stephen will live and work in the Egg, a temporary, energy efficient self-sustaining floating work space in the estuary of the River Beaulieu, Hampshire. Stephen’s work is concerned with aspects of time and the dialectics of transience and permanence. His work often involves spending long periods in odd, abandoned places, noting changes in the complex relationship between nature and the man-made. His projects are rooted in research, which explores these themes as part of a creative practice that involves sampling, collecting, annotating, editing and merging of historic, geographic and environmental data with other more subjective investigations into the distinctiveness and particularity of place. All welcome. FREE to Blue Monkey Network members; non-members £8. Refreshments will be available (contributions welcome) or feel free to bring a bottle.
