A Town Explores a Book

BACK

During Crusoe's early years on the island, he crafts a periagua, a little boat with mast, sail, lockers and umbrella shade and sets sail to explore the other end of the island. It's a perilous adventure to the other side.

We invite 2 mosaic artists, 2 photographers, 2 painters, 2 mixed media artists, 2 textile artists and 2 artists working with collage to set sail with their distillations of the novel from one side of St Leonards to the other. What do we learn from viewing their work in 2 places? What do the artists learn about themselves from these contrasting perspectives?

A free exhibition in two parts with the Zoom Arts collective and representatives from other arts organisations in town. Visit the work twice, taking your 'periagua' boat from one side of town to the other.

Location one: 4-14 April, South Lodge, St Leonards Gardens, Maze Hill, St Leonards on Sea, TN38 0BA, access: steep steps. 10.30-4.30pm
Location 2: 15-27 April, Zoom Arts, Warrior Square Station, St Leonards on Sea, TN37 6BS, level access. 10.30-4.30pm
