Event Details

Are You Lost? is a sound, film and textile artwork from artist Rob St John. The installation has spent the summer travelling through the Forest of Bowland and this is a unique opportunity to enjoy it here in Lancaster. What connects you to the Forest of Bowland?

Over the last year, Rob has been working with people in and around Bowland, exploring themes of environmental justice, land access and personal perspectives and connections to the landscape. The installation has been created through these conversations, and weaves together voices, field recordings and choral improvisations. The textile element is a collaboration with textile artistKate O’Farrell, drawing upon the cotton mill weaving practices of East Lancashire and the textile traditions of Gujarat in India, alongside natural materials and processes derived from the Bowland landscape.

Are You Lost? is part of a national programme called Nature Calling, commissioned by the Forest of Bowland National Landscape and produced by Lancaster Arts.

Join us on 3 October for drop-in screen printing, 2-4pm, to create a unique memento of the installation.
