Connecting Circles & On Board

| Eddie Callis: story board of new music video shoot at BLW for heaven and dreams |
Shallal originally started their annual Back Lane West Residencies as the answer to a request by Jane and Patrick Lowry to have the community more in the space and the enthusiasm of Jo Willis to have a residency for Shallal, somewhere to delve deeper into new ideas and ones that float around but have nowhere to be explored at depth in the year of Shallal sessions.
Situated deep in the heart of Redruth, and therefore also central to Cornwall, it allows artists to meet from both ends, Newlyn to Liskeard and beyond, enjoying visiting artists as well.
This year we are as excited as ever, bringing in many groups and collaborations, researching new projects such as On Board, -migration and journeys, along with: improvised dance - balance and wheels! recycled fashion meets dance party, music, illustration, installations, drawing, painting, writing, music video, film and photography.
Starting with an online Artists talk by Eddie Callis, a reflection on his creative life journey,https://eddiecallis.co.uk/ midpoint an installation of work, to be explored by dancers, by new Studio artist Daniel Willoughby and potentially ending with performance art by new trustee Elizabeth Tomos.https://elizabethtomos.com/work
In between we hope to have Sharings/events also open to the public and will post them as they come up.
Throughout the residency we are continually asking ourselves: what can we do better? how can we best respond to the issues of our times?
We believe that, at it’s best, the ethos we aspire to work with can model a way of being in community.
