This is me

A new visual artwork by Melanie Young and Carlone Schanche.

  • Booking not needed
  • Free event (admission applies)

Explore this gilded reliquary that houses memories of the past, precious objects of belonging, and dreams of far-away places. Artists, Melanie and Caroline, worked with members of the Women's Institute to explore their connections to place, to Cornwall and the lands far beyond its borders and beaches. ‘This is Me’ is one of seventeen artworks produced for Hello Stranger, a Cornwall-wide community engagement programme created by Wildworks and supported by National Trust properties in Cornwall and the communities they serve. Starting its tour of Cornwall at Trerice, 'This is Me' will travel to share its stories with visitors at Trelissick, Cotehele, Pentire, and Godolphin until November 26, 2024.
