We are a collective of artists based in Cornwall, united in our effort to challenge the perception of our beloved county. The idyllic postcard image of Cornwall, a haven for holiday-makers seeking respite, is an illusion that obscures a raft of principles that make this region universally important.
Our mission is to report the true character of the west-country through a series of interconnected video art pieces. We aim to capture the vibrant essence of our region; the tribal bonds, the collaborative spirit, the creative fluidity, the makeshift décor, the exuberant celebrations, and the profound love for art, innovation, community & nature that define our identity. We believe that by showcasing these indigenous qualities, we can stir a profound, unconditional appreciation of west-country culture, transcending the fleeting pleasures of seasonal hospitality.
We envision a catalogue of art films (genre scenes) depicting the people & places we know - Our lenses fixed on the tenacious spirit of the Cornish community; By blending contemporary filmmaking techniques with the compositional richness of classical art, we aspire to capture scenes of life that encourage imitation from our audiences - for them echo these behaviours through their own life experiences.
In an age of untold loneliness… We seek to challenge the emptiness of our consumer-driven lives and provoke contemplation on the fundamental questions of our time: How do we reconnect to the natural world, to our communities and to ourselves? What does it mean to be free, happy and fulfilled in the 21st century?
