Kurt Jackson’s guest lecture advertised his new exhibition opening in the Royal Cornwall Museum at the end of March. The exhibition, ‘Place’ presents a body of work in collaboration with 32 writers and poets from a range of backgrounds, who he challenged to send him to places in the UK that meant something personal to them. The task sent him all over the UK, from the Outer Hebrides to Cornwall, revealing the physical diversity of the country. The body of work sees a 500 word transcript written about the chosen location shown alongside Kurt’s work made in response to that place. He has been able to gain an insight into how this eclectic mix of writers and thinkers view the British landscape. As a result this starts to reveal reasons why people have specific attachments to certain places.
