Burrow - ‘a heap of mining related waste’. Seven Cornish artists present photography, film and sound works about mining in Cornwall. They explore the people and landscapes around what remains of Cornwall’s historic mining industry as well as the environmental and social implications of the hunt for most sought after mineral in the world: Lithium. 

South Crofty; the last working tin mine in Cornwall closed 25 years ago. The many hundred engine houses dotted around the county stand testament to the once richest mining areas in the world. The artists in 'Burrow' all bring different bodies of work to exhibit and show what the history and landscape means to them and their practice.
