About this event
‘The Last Weekend’ will be a festival of workshops, performance, film screenings and talks exploring identity, culture, and environment.
We are delighted to be welcoming Outi Pieski back to St Ives for this final event to celebrate her show, with performers, activists, and spokespeople for Sámi rights. Featuring yoik and poetry performances from Jalvvi Niillas Holmberg.
‘Meet the Deep’ is a special programme devised by artist Emma Critchley in collaboration with Mekhala Dave, a lawyer and curator based in Vienna and Fiona Middleton, marine researcher at the University of Southampton. Join in a discussion about the rights of the sea with international marine activists, artists and lawyers debating the pivotal question of deep-sea mining. ‘Meet the Deep’ is supported using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England.
With a focus on new works in the Tate collection we’re also delighted to be welcoming Patrick Hughes to speak about his work On Reflection: St Ives (c. 1975-8) and his memories of the creative community in St Ives.
Throughout the weekend there will be family resources for activities in the gallery and a playful and creative making workshop with artist Vicky Wiltshire, inspired by the artwork of Outi Pieski and Sámi craft and folklore traditions. Look Group members are also invited to book their place on the Saturday Look Group Social.
Talks will be BSL interpreted.
The Last Weekend is supported by Jane and Aatos Erkko Foundation, Royal Norwegian Embassy and FRAME.
