MEMORY GUIDED ROUTES – WALKING OUT FROM HOME
23rd July – 4th September 2016. FREE admission.
Rural Routes: Bolsover Walks is a new digital commission for Junction Arts and D-Lab by artist, curator and researcher Dr Simon Woolham. The artist and co-walker walk towards different locations, either physically or using Google Maps, guided by the co-walker’s own memories. The initial walks are sound recorded by the artist and later developed as a series of re-enacted narratives and measured filmed stills taken from carefully chosen sites.
The exhibition features three short films from Bolsover Walks and a series of biro drawings exploring occupied spaces and the narratives that unfold in and around them.
Located in the Special Exhibition Space in the Creswell Crags Visitor Centre and Museum.
