About this event
Queering the Landscape is a workshop inspired by artist’s Ithell Colquhoun, Gluck and Marlow Moss, who settled in Lamorna Cove, Cornwall in the 1940’s. These artists challenged the gender norms of the time, and even those that exist today. Find out more about these alternative perspectives and have a go at creating your own ‘queer’ landscape painting.
Sophie Meyer is a queer historian and director of Queer Kernow CIC. They work with galleries, libraries, museums and archives in Cornwall to explore, promote and engage with the LGBTQIA+ history of Cornwall. Elliott Kenton is a trans-masculine Cornish artist. He is motivated to create art that connects us with our interpersonal relationships, identity and well-being. Kenton says ‘my work is characterised by harmonious use of colours and my medium of choice is acrylic paint because it provides options of texture and urgency’.
