Feb 15th-Oct 23rd 2016
This exhibition of work was produced in direct response to the post-mining landscape of Geevor, alongside work from Randall’s Artists Residency at Parys Mountain Copper Mine, Anglesey.
‘Aftermath’ is the first exhibition for ‘Another Eden’, a major art and industry project
which Randall is leading, and which aims to explore the 10 sites of Cornish World
Heritage Mining from a visual arts perspective, creating innovative new artworks, and
engaging local communities and visitors to the sites.
Against the rich backdrop of the World Heritage site of Geevor Tin Mine , the exhibition draws strong connections between the environment of the working mine and its aftermath landscapes , offering a different way of interpreting these sites, their history, unique ecology, and alternative beauty.
