SILO SONG

Exhibition at Shatwell farm Somerset, Winter

solstice (2022)

The song of the Silo | Video and sound installation in the Grain Silo.

The film was filmed on my residency with Hauser & Wirth. Underwater film, footage from the River Dee Scotland, August 2022

The meaning of the Dee is Goddess. The purest of water I ever did swim. Through the film I fly through flickering forms of a song. I express the need for listening and healing in nature. Just as the wind-blown tree is the living energy of the wind, the body is the waters movement, its song. I feel the crystal-clear cairngorms waters ambrosia through my body, dropping into the sensual world…everything that we don’t know, everything that we can only feel. The silo becomes an exploding horn of plenty. where we preserve and encapsulate the goodness within

LABYRINTH Fire ceremony   

Exhibition at Shatwell farm Somerset, Winter

solstice (2022)

A Swedish torch fire labyrinth installation and

ceremony. Created in collaboration with Mark Willienbruch. 

Symbolising the return of the sun into the world again, is a labyrinth spiral created by Mark Willienbruch. A Cup and ring marking on the land, a spiral space to hold the universal energy of suns life force. Mark ‘Walking the illuminated spiral invites you to look within whilst simultaneously being present to the outer world, bringing forth our luminous souls.’

 

journey to the centre of the labyrinth spiral and burn with conscious forgetting, taking with you only the essence of the medicine as you let go your intention.

TITHE BARN SOLO SHOW

‘Piccalilith Myth’ Exhibition, Solo show exhibition of works and live on the opening and closing ceremonies. In the Tithe

barn pilton, on the Glastonbury festival site. October (2021)

Deepening a celebration between light and dark, a luscious lore of land and body, set in the 

stone walls of the c14th medieval barn filled with paintings & tapestries, moving like fluid sounds of a song and weaving stories spun by candlelight.

 

 Born and bred in Somerset, Lilith is welcomed the opportunity by festival founder Michael Eavis to stage her multimedia exhibition in the C.14th tithe barn loving restored by him on the Glastonbury festival site. The installation of paintings, ceramic, textiles, prints and drawing together with performance art will bring the ancient walls to life again.

WORK 1. iching elements  copy.jpg

The 8 elements April 2020
 Mixed media on linen.
Each hanging 300cm high X 76cm wide. Here the series are installed in a concertina frame.

These wall hangings are a series of figurative works that represent the eight elements from the 2,500 year old Yi Jing or I Ching, translated as the 'Book of Changes', which is an ancient Chinese work of divination and prophesy.

 

The elements are here depicted as a group of eight hermaphroditic figures who converse with each other, ‘holding the space’. In old folklore everything is named in the plant kingdom and has a sacred meaning/symbol.
