Lecturer's show shortlisted for Cornwall Heritage Awards 2024
21 December 2023
Re:voice, a show directed by senior lecturer Agnieszka Blonska as part of the Re:voice research project on intangible cultural heritage, has been shortlisted for 'Collaboration' in the Cornwall Museums Partnership (CMP) Cornwall Heritage Awards 2024.
The Re:voice collaboration was led by Falmouth University and included Tate St Ives, imPOSSIBLE Producing Ltd, and the Tuesday Night Fun Club, a community choir from Penzance.
The show was co-created with the choir, building on workshops around the project’s research questions to explore living heritage in relation to themes of home, belonging, and community.
The performance took place at Tate St Ives in April this year on the final weekend of its Barbara Hepworth exhibition and was shown alongside other outputs from the project including A Serpent’s Dance, a sound piece by Lucy Frears; and Pass It On, a film by Florence Browne about Cornish, Frisian, and Livonian intangible heritage.
The CMP Cornwall Heritage Award winners will be announced in February 2024.
