Pelican of London

The work aims to “encapsulate through an imaginative interpretation, the spirit and wider cultural vision embedded in the fibre of this ship and in its connection to place, Weymouth Harbour.”

The b-side festival is part of London 2012 Cultural Olympiad by the Sea and Maritime Mix.

Gary Stewart, Stefan Kueppers and Alice Angus of Proboscis
Commissioned for Ex Lab, “Story Weir” is inspired by the rich mix of physical and social history, folklore, scientific knowledge and contemporary stories found in Burton Bradstock, the Jurassic Coast and at Hive Beach

Meet Alice Angus at the Spring Tide Festival, Burton Bradstock on 19&20 May.
“In that ephemeral space of flux between the land and sea the continual cycles of sun, tide and sea effect changes larger than we can imagine but also are felt by humans on a daily basis.” Alice Angus

Ex Lab offers a vibrant mix of contemporary visual arts commissions and will be a unique creative celebration responding to the Olympic Experience, the Jurassic Coast and the sea. Ex Lab is part of London 2012 Cultural Olympiad by the Sea and Maritime Mix.
