A new exhibition, talks and walks from Sara Trillo, exploring the Kentish landscape
A new exhibition from Sara Trillo, exploring the Kentish landscape. In old Kentish dialect “Alleycumfee” means a fictitious place, an imaginary destination you named when pressed with unwanted questions about where you were travelling to.
Sara Trillo uses the term Alleycumfee to name spaces within the Kentish landscape; places which, although inspired by ancient sites of human activity, have now largely vanished and for the most part exist only in the imagination. The work represents the artist’s quest to visit what remains of these locations and fuse this experience with research into their histories to create the work shown here. The different types of places Trillo has explored in this exhibition represent diverse aspects of the county’s topography: the sea, the coast, and the subterranean. Alongside the exhibition, we have a number of related events. All are free, but booking is required.
Private View: Friday 18 October, 4.30 - 6.30pm Celebrate the exhibition with us on St Luke's Day - the patron saint of artists and doctors.
Artist Talk: Thursday 14 November, 2 - 3pm Trillo will deliver a talk about her practice.
Artist Walks: Saturday 26 October, 10am, and Wednesday 27 November, 1pm. Specially-commissioned for the exhibition, Trillo will be sharing mythologies and histories about the landscape. The walk will last approximately 2 - 2.5 hours.
