HAPPIDROME ONE showcases the work of Sara Bowler, Elizabeth Masterton, Steven Paige, Paul Ridout and Alison Sharkey in a disused WW2 radar station located on the Lizard Peninsula in Cornwall.
The building and its environs have been major catalysts in the development of their ideas. The raw nature of the place provides an ideal environment to present experimental work, providing a platform for the artists to actively engage with their audience both critically and physically.
Delivered with the support of Natural England (who manage the site as part of the national nature reserve at Goonhilly Downs), the exhibition will temporarily animate the redundant building over two weekends in July.
HAPPIDROME EVENTS
Elizabeth Masterton's 'Radar Ramble' will take place at 4pm on Sunday 8 July and Sunday 15 July. Meet at the Receiver Block (the main indoor exhibition space) for some radar themed talking and walking. The ramble will last approximately 30 minutes and will be mostly on paths with some off-roading so please wear suitable clothing and footwear. |
