SUMMARY:Seaweed Pressing at The Morrab Library
DESCRIPTION:Join us to learn the craft of seaweed pressing – a Victorian practice that captures the underwater beauty of seaweeds. This pressing workshop is particularly special as we are hosting it in collaborating with The Morrab Library\, a beautiful library in Penzance. \nFrom Morrab we will walk together to the foreshore of Mounts Bay to search for seaweeds to press. Whilst on the beach we will explain to you about sustainable harvesting\, tides and point out edible species. \nBack at the library we will get the chance to view the beautiful examples of historic seaweed pressings. The library’s archive is home to some incredible bound examples of original pressings collected in Mounts Bay. \nThe cultural history of seaweeds will be discussed and you will learn how to forage\, store and use this abundant resource. \nWith inspiration from the archives we will start the pressing process . After laying out your designs they will be loaded into our seaweed press where they will dry over the next weeks. We will send your pieces to you via the post when they are ready. \nBook here via Eventbrite. The library is not taking bookings.

SUMMARY:My Family and Other Animals – Artist Residency with Nadia Peters & Philip Riley
DESCRIPTION:September will see us welcome artists Philip Riley and Nadia Peters to the library\, where they will explore the library’s relationship with nature\, taking inspiration from our historic book collection. \nPhilip and Nadia work collaboratively with mixed media\, inspired by their surroundings and incorporating found objects. From the 16th-25th September they will aim to use our historic book collection as a visual and literary starting point for the creation of sculptural work. They will focus particularly on the animal images from the work of Swiss naturalist\, Conrad Gesner and his important 16th century encyclopedia Historia Animalium\, (you can read a library blog about Gesner here). Found organic and vintage material collected locally will be incorporated into their sculptural response to the library building\, historic artefacts and the location itself. \n \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nAs well as the opportunity to meet the artists each day of the residency as they work on their creations\, Philip and Nadia will present a talk about how the library and its collections has influenced and inspired their work on the 25th September. \nThe artists will also host workshops at the local St Levan Primary School\, where students will have the opportunity to work with Philip and Nadia to create images based on the fantastic creatures depicted in Historia Animalium\, which will subsequently be displayed at the library on the day of the talk. \nNadia Peters is a mixed media installation artist based in Manchester. Her work is inspired by her surroundings and incorporates found objects. Phil Riley is a Cyprus based artist. Working in plaster using natural forms found on location\, his practice now includes casting in sand. Phil’s subject matter is influenced by both his international and Uk artist residencies.\nWe look forward to welcoming them and introducing you to their work.

SUMMARY:Library Talks | Philip Riley & Nadia Peters Artist in Residence
DESCRIPTION:Join our artists-in-residence\, Philip Riley and Nadia Peters\, as they present a talk outlining their work and inspirations during their time at The Morrab Library. Learn how they used our historic book collection as a visual and literary starting point for the creation of sculptural work\, particularly the work of Conrad Gesner’s 16th century work ‘Historia Animalium’. \nThey’ll also discuss their workshops with local primary school St Levan’s\, inspiring them to create art based on the fantastic creatures depicted by Gesner. \nNadia Peters is a mixed media installation artist based in Manchester. Her work is inspired by her surroundings and incorporates found objects. \nPhil Riley is a Cyprus based artist. Working in plaster using natural forms found on location\, his practice now includes casting in sand. Phil’s subject matter is influenced by both his international and Uk artist residencies. \nTickets are allocated by a ballot system. Please email enquiries@morrablibrary.org.uk or call 01736 364474 to be entered into the ballot for a ticket. The ballot closes on Monday 16th September. Entry to this event is free but donations are welcomed to help support The Morrab Library (suggested £5). Refreshments will be provided after the talk.
