Welcome to Cobland
The Golden Valley Sundial Project in collaboration with artist Chris Poolman, commissioned by Meadow Arts as part of Our Place Golden Valley
“Artists in Herefordshire turn to folk history, farming knowledge and community collaboration to reimagine the countryside as a site of cultural production, rather than the backdrop.
This summer, artists Chris Poolman and Grace Emily Manning present The Golden Valley Sundial, a touring outdoor artwork that brings together folk-history, agricultural practices, and the lived experience of contemporary, rural communities.
Commissioned by Meadow Arts, the work emerges from Our Place Golden Valley, a three-year creative health project exploring what it means to live in, and belong to, a geographically and culturally distinct rural landscape.
The Ledbury-based artists have spent a year working with communities in the Golden Valley in Southwest Herefordshire, a rural county known for its agricultural heritage, and home to the medieval Mappa Mundi. This process has culminated in The Golden Valley Sundial, a large-scale, modular artwork and interactive game which will tour the county, transforming village greens, heritage sites and agricultural shows into unexpected stages for contemporary art.”
