To celebrate the return of spring, Coney is presenting three outdoor adventures inviting you to explore your locality in new and exciting ways.

Wander among the graves of your local cemetery, find the perfect instagram spot or discover the secret powers near where you live or work, in these three exciting work-in-progress pieces by Coney artists.

Artists Afreena Islam-Wright and Mark Croasdale take you on an interactive storytelling journey in your local cemetery.

Grab your smartphone and a pair of headphones and walk with them as they share their stories: stories of funerals, of loss of loved ones and strangers, of longing and avoiding, of religion and faith…

This new work-in-progress show explores our relationship with grief and the spaces connected to it.

This is an individual audio piece that can be played at any time during the day in any cemetery: then join us for a drink in the Coney Zoom Bar to meet the artists and share stories.

Memory corrosion

Newburgh, NY, USA

The first canvas captures the initial stages of memory corrosion, where fragmented recollections intertwine with the act of walking. Here, blurred images and disjointed pathways symbolize the fleeting nature of memory as one navigates through the labyrinth of the mind. In the second canvas, wandering takes center stage as memories meander through subconscious landscapes. Tangled brushstrokes and obscured landmarks evoke the sensation of drifting aimlessly, mirroring the unpredictable nature of memory recall. The final canvas embodies letting go as memories dissolve into ethereal landscapes of abstraction. Fading colors and fading contours signify the gradual release of attachment to the past, allowing space for new experiences and narratives to emerge.
