SUMMARY:Artist in Residence - Vicki Aimers
DESCRIPTION:The Mending Rehearsal: Margaret Lanyon – The Wendron Years\n\n\nVicki Aimers is a book artist\, and PhD researcher with Falmouth University. Her practice-based research explores the lives of young Cornish sampler makers and the teachers who taught them needlework\, through archival research\, narrative stitch\, artist books\, creative writing\, and community workshops. Through making and participation\, her work considers how textiles can hold traces of education\, memory\, care\, labour\, and lived experience\, offering insight into the often-overlooked histories of girls and women in Cornwall. \nDuring her residency at the Museum of Cornish Life\, Vicki will be creating new work in response to the museum’s sampler collection\, which spans from the mid eighteenth to the early twentieth century. Alongside this\, she will be researching the lives and stories connected to these historic textiles\, sharing the experiences of the pupils and teachers whose work survives within the county’s collections. \nA particular focus of her current project is a darning sampler sewn in 1879 by Margaret Lanyon (1861-1939)\, held in the collection of Cornwall Museum & Art Gallery. Through archival research\, Vicki has been tracing Margaret’s life from her early years in Gweek\, where her family worked within the maritime industry\, to her later life in the farming community of Wendron\, where she married the celebrated Cornish wrestler John “Jack” Pearce. These fragments of everyday life and labour\, form an important starting point for the residency and wider study.

SUMMARY:Screening - Manifesto
DESCRIPTION:Ane Hjort Guttu’s film Manifesto\, 2020\, (27 min) speculates on the aims and purposes of institutional art education. Newly migrated into a university and an open-plan campus building\, an art school feels cornered by a suffocating culture of surveillance and administration. Staff and students find ways to subvert control through secret operations. Drawing on her own experiences as an art teacher\, Ane Hjort Guttu explores what is lost when creativity is replaced by order and provides action plans for how to be the playful rebel. \nAne Hjort Guttu is a visual artist and filmmaker based in Oslo. She works across a range of media\, with a particular focus on text and moving images. Her practice explores the relationship between freedom and power\, how we navigate public space\, individual autonomy\, and the social\, economic\, and political conditions of art. \nFrom 13 to 20 March 2026 Ane Hjort Guttu will be leading the eighth Cornwall Workshop\, a weeklong intensive residential workshop for artists\, curators and writers based in Cornwall and the South West. The workshop is organised by CAST and hosted at Kestle Barton on the Lizard peninsula.
