Walking Home
Walking a line.
Exploring walking as an art practice.
Exploring the practice of Pilgrimage - as a container for personal transformation.
Exploring walking as a contemporary radical act, as a social act, celebrating the idea of ‘performance’ as artefact.
Challenging our current social urbanisation, our ‘stasis’ buried in digital ‘flat time’ where our sensing has become disembodied. Breathing and actioning the memory, reclaiming personal agency beyond institutions to become the landscape. Free from definition and making reference to the anti-materialist mode of practice of conceptual artists from the 1970’s to the present day.
Pilgrimages
Two Moors Way / Coast to Coast
Walking 117 miles over 8 days on the Devon Coast to Coast walk (Two Moors Way) - which runs between Wembury on the South Devon coast and Lynmouth on the North Devon coast, passing through two National Parks, Dartmoor and Exmoor.
The Dingle Way / Kerry Camino
The Dingle Way (Irish: Slí Chorca Dhuibhne) is a long-distance trail around the Dingle Peninsula in County Kerry, Ireland. It is a 162-kilometre (101-mile) long circular route that begins and ends in Tralee - completed in eight days.
The Golden Valley
Walk this circular pilgrimage route of 59 miles, over 6-7 days - along stunning ancient paths, beginning and ending at Hereford Cathedral. The route links the Wye Valley with the Golden Valley and the flower meadows and foothills of the Black Mountains. Once you leave the city and the Cathedral behind, this is a rich and silent land, good for the body as well as the soul, visiting apple orchards, sacred sites, ruined castles, holy wells, and Arthurian legends.
St Oswald’s Way
St Oswald’s Way is a long-distance walking route, exploring some of the finest landscapes and fascinating history of Northumberland. The route links some of the places associated with St. Oswald, the King of Northumbria in the early 7th Century, who played a major part in bringing Christianity to his people.
