Exhibition Description:
Title: Inter / Extra Terrestrial
Artist Anna Clough presents a multi-media installation including moving image and sculpture. The work was made in response to a week-long residency completed in early September, including a workshop with local residents, which involved the creation of a Crop Circle on Roanhead beach.
Considering links between deep time, interspecies communication and sci-fi, the artist explores in the liminal space between natural ecology (plants & animals) and built ecologies (primary industry & holiday homes). Through conversations with local residents, the installation explores valuing, responsibility and ownership in the coastline of the Furness peninsula.
Anna Clough Bio
Anna Clough was born in Cumbria and is currently based at the Paradise Works Studios in Manchester, where she was awarded the Howarth Trust Bursary 23-24. Anna's work reflects the British landscape - its ecosystems, romanticisation and heritage are recurring themes within her practice.
Her interests lie within industrial systems that exist and operate in landscape and how objects can change in value. Led by process, her making is grounded in sculpture, reactivating found materials and forms often through movement.
