Stephen Cornford: Four Million Tonnes per Annum

February 16 – March 23, 2024

Pound Arts, Corsham

This solo exhibition takes the rate of limestone extraction in North East Somerset as its title. The work considers the relationship between technology and landscape, how landscapes become technologised as infrastructures for industry. By combining timelapse infrared video of disused quarries across the South West with satellite images of phytoplankton blooms in the Arctic Ocean, this new installation addresses the impact of human activity on the planetary carbon cycle.�

March 12, 2024 | 14:00 GMT

Winchester School of Art

Imani Jacqueline Brown (b. 1988) is an artist, activist, and architectural researcher from New Orleans, based in London. Her work investigates the ‘continuum of extractivism’, which spans from settler-colonial genocide and slavery to fossil fuel production, gentrification, and police and corporate impunity.  In exposing the layers of violence and resistance that form the foundations of US society, she opens up space to imagine paths to ecological reparations.
