Welcome to Coastal Currents Arts
Festival 2015, featuring a packed curated
programme of exhibitions showcasing newly
commissioned artworks, live art pieces and
special performances alongside the much
loved open studios, exhibitions and events
taking place throughout Hastings, St Leonards
and beyond.
In this, the sixteenth year of Coastal Currents,
we have taken the opportunity to programme
the most ambitious festival yet.
Following on from last year’s highly successful
collaboration between Creative Coast, Sweet
& Dandy and Home Live Art, the same Coastal
Currents team has worked together once again
on an exciting and diverse programme for 2015.
Over two weeks and three weekends, Coastal
Currents will present a selection of works in
unusual and unexpected places. Focusing
on what the festival does best of all, we
have concentrated on “the outdoors” and
programmed a host of free and accessible
pieces for everyone to enjoy.
Seafront sculptures, ladies in red, a lesson in
boredom, a trick on the eye and a film premiere
in Priory Meadow Shopping Centre are just
some of the highlights to look out for.
Hastings Borough Council is
proud to support this well loved
arts festival in this, it’s 16th year.
To continue in the vein of
last year’s successes, Coastal
Currents will commission even
more work especially for the
town and its residents to enjoy.
We welcome Tod Hanson as
Artist in Residence for a whole
6 weeks prior to the festival.
We know the people of Hastings
& St Leonards will make his stay
thoroughly enjoyable. In addition,
we can look forward to world
renowned Spanish street artist
Isaac Cordal who will visit to
make us a set of sculptures
all of our very own.
We are honoured to have such
prestigious artists making work
for the town and we urge you to
visit these free, accessible and
unique installations.
Join artist Amy Sharrocks in her
mass sea “fall”, as well as a whole
host of other events including
Clod Ensembles’ Red Ladies and
the inimitable Hunt & Darton.
There will still be the usual high
quality selection of Open Studios
as well as a host of events.
So thanks to everyone for
taking such an active part in
this celebration of Hastings &
St Leonards’ creativity and to
the team who have run this
festival successfully on our
behalf for the last nine years.
Cllr Dawn Poole
Lead Member for Regeneration,

Curated Programme
Isaac Cordal sculptures (p12)
This year, Coastal Currents has worked hard to develop
on the successes of 2014 with the most ambitious
and daring programme yet, featuring both local and
international artists. Focusing on what the festival does
best, we have looked to make all our curated projects
as accessible as possible, bringing as much art and
performance outdoors while celebrating all that is
Hastings & St Leonards.

Isaac Cordal has been asked to respond to the town,
by creating a set of his ‘Cement Eclipses’ - miniature
sculptures hidden along our seafront.
Lastly, we have invited artist Tod Hanson to live and
work in Hastings for six weeks to create a very special
piece for the town, responding to the intricate Durbar
Hall at Hastings Museum and transforming the space.

Coastal Currents Launch Event
Fri 28 August, 7 - 9pm
Bottle Alley, Hastings/St Leonards seafront, Pier entrance
FREE
All welcome, but please arrive promptly to receive your
free welcome drink.
This year’s Coastal Currents launch moves away from the
theatrical stage to the outdoors, celebrating a distinctive
space that physically joins together Hastings and St Leonards.
We want to challenge your perceptions of another familiar
and well-loved location, one so often missed but still surprising
and amazing its visitors.
ZEROH will transform this space into a subterranean art
installation to launch Coastal Currents Arts Festival 2015.
Bottle Alley Hastings is a unique site, revolutionary in its concept
and half a mile long, in part made from recycled materials, built
to provide a unique underground promenading experience.
A series of simple repeating pillars, exactly spaced, frame the
outside world, giving a sense of rhythm as you walk through the
space, forming a vanishing point of perception, disappearing in
both directions into a futurist vortex.
Embracing the current state of decay and celebrating the
unrivalled geometric splendour of simple lines and form that
frame the horizon of the sea, this work will collaborate with
local artists to transform the space.
More details will be revealed at www.zeroh.net and
www.coastalcurrents.org.uk
We hope you’ll join us,
ZEROH and the Coastal Currents team.

Coastal Currents have invited Hanson to create a new
commission, responding to the town’s beloved Durbar Hall
at Hastings Museum & Art Gallery.
Artist Tod Hanson makes striking large-scale public art
and gallery installations with a particular focus on the
decorative arts, architecture, infrastructure and technology.
Hanson explores themes of industrialisation, consumerism,
celebration and delirium. A world over-amplified and
speeding up.
For the festival, Hanson will be hand-painting an elaborate
floor piece inside Hastings Museum, re-working elements
found in the richly ornate Durbar Hall and combining with
items and themes from the collection, sending them into
a dizzy visual spin.
This artwork will transform the room and create an
immersive visual arts experience that can be observed
from the many viewpoints that make up this unique space.

Isaac Cordal
New Commission for Coastal Currents Festival
Fri 28 August - permanent installation
Hastings Seafront - Rock-a-Nore
Internationally acclaimed Spanish street artist Isaac Cordal has
been commissioned to create a set of permanent pieces as part
of his Cement Eclipses series especially for Hastings seafront.
Cement Eclipses are a critical examination of our behavior
as a social mass. These tiny cement works of art, often at the
height of the sole of passers by, contemplate the demolition and
reconstruction of everything around us. They draw our attention
to the absurdity of our existence.
Cordal’s miniature sculptures explore themes of climate change,
scepticism with authority, anonymity and the drudgery
of modern life, placed amongst urban streets to criticise
contemporary society.
With the simple act of miniaturisation and thoughtful placement,
Isaac Cordal magically expands the imagination of pedestrians
who stumble across his sculptures on the street.
Isaac Cordal is sympathetic toward his little people and you can
empathise with their situations, their leisure time and even their
more tragic moments. The sculptures can usually be found in
gutters, on top of buildings, on top of bus shelters and in many
unusual and unlikely places.

Meet outside the Stade Hall
For the opening weekend of Coastal Currents, we have invited
Amy Sharrocks to bring Museum of Water to the festival and
make a radical live artwork DAYTRIP on our coast.
Join us for a mass fall into
the waters of Hastings.
For three days you are invited to think about water.
Discover people’s stories of water, bring your own water that is
precious to you, fall, crash and splash into water… become part
of something big.

Opposite Fishermen’s Museum, Rock-­a-Nore Road,
Hastings, TN34 3DW
Museum of Water is a collection of publicly donated water
and accompanying stories. It’s an invitation to ponder our
most precious liquid and how we use it. Do you swim in pools?
Do you splash in puddles? Do you drink from a tap?
Come along and explore the existing collection, and make
your own donation to the Museum.
Choose some water that is precious to you.
Find a bottle to put it in.
Tell us why you chose this water.
We will keep it for you.
There are many falls: falling
asleep, economic slumps and
crashes, falls from grace, or just
a general difficulty keeping up.
Children teach us that falling is a
human condition, but somehow
we forget that as we grow UP…
As Europe monitors the dangers
of dipping our toes in the water,
we will come together to explore
the possibilities of our trips and
stumbles, manage a different set
of risks, and investigate the lure
of the sea. What are the health
risks of staying on the shore?
This is a rare chance to plunge
into the sea together and share
a group fall.
Please bring a towel.
Hot drinks for everyone
afterwards.
In celebration of our ready access to fresh water in the UK,
running alongside the Museum is Water Bar, the UK’s first
free pop-up bar serving only tap water.

Set on the “flat” with a roaming

marks the culmination of
years of development of
MANJUSAKA. Therefore we are
proud to bring this, the final
complete piece to you as part of
Coastal Current’s programming
for Stade Saturdays.
MANJUSAKA is a new dance
project by Yumino Seki and
her cross-disciplinary team
exploring worlds of immortality
through dance and light
installation. Seki’s choreography
is drawn from Butoh, a form
of Japanese avant-garde
dance theatre.

RADIATOR ARTS is a Hastings
based team of artists, designers
and performers who provide
innovative unique site-specific
events that lift the spirits and
expand the imagination.
Named after the vivid red
flower in the amaryllis family
that blooms at the autumn
equinox when the dead and
living are believed to converge,
MANJUSAKA creates a
multidimensional experience
for viewers incorporating
choreography, light installation,
soundscape and guided viewing
points; reflecting the true
essence of Butoh, Seki’s work
is a fusion of East and West,
contemporary and traditional.
Bringing you moves, some wise
words, ‘you do it bits’ while
promising lots of visual stimuli
in case anyone, well, gets
bored. Hunt & Darton think it’s
a damned good idea to get
bored and actively encourage
you do to. It might also just
change your life.

Boredom is an exploration into

“Begin walking and reality kicks in.
Inch by inch, through the heat of
the day, this painful realisation: you
are where you are. And you will stay
there until you summon the energy
to put one foot in front of the other.”
Iain Sinclair - Edge of the Orison
By Our Selves
Dir- Andrew Kötting with Iain
Sinclair 2015. 80 mins
Kino-Teatr, Baker-Mamonova
Gallery, Norman Rd,
St Leonards on Sea, TN38 0EQ
Fri 4 September 7.30 start
Introduced by Andrew Kötting
and Iain Sinclair.
By Our Selves documents a fourday walk made by the English
Poet John Clare. Toby Jones, Iain
Sinclair and a Straw Bear follow
in his footsteps exactly 150 years
after his death.
On route they bump into
MacGillivray, Dr Simon Kovesi
and the wizard Alan Moore. The
journey is narrated by Toby’s
father Freddie, a maverick actor
who featured in numerous
David Lynch films.
John Clare’s escape from Epping
Forest, an epic march through
hunger and madness, is an
English journey to set beside
‘A Pilgrim’s Progress’. Andrew
Kötting, hyperkinetic campervan captain of Gallivant, sets out
in hot pursuit, dressed as a Straw
Bear. Father and son, Freddie
and Toby Jones, are possessed
by the spirit of Clare, and locked
in Beckettian embrace: one allvoice and one all-mute.
The writer Iain Sinclair watches
from the shadows, Alan Moore
waits like a bearded figure of
fate in Northampton and Dr
Simon Kovesi hands out the
medicine.
Captured in lustrous black
and white photography, they
discover the only truth of the
22 coastalcurrents.org.uk
road: whatever our hopes
and delusions, we are always
By Our Selves.

tickets are limited and need

Sat 12 September 8pm
Introduction by Director
and Barefoot Opera.
Coastal Currents are proud to
present the premiere screening
of this new film by Hastings
based film makers Nichola
Bruce and Sam Sharples with
Barefoot Opera.
Pale Shadows is told through
the eyes of a young storyteller.
She reveals the story of
Bradamante who travels to a
magical island to reclaim her
lost lover Ruggeiro from the
enchantress Alcina. This is a rich
visionary approach to Handel’s
opera Alcina, which explores
the intrigue and turmoil of love.
Set against a contemporary
world, it features some of
Handel’s most moving arias.
The feature film Pale Shadows
is an experimental approach to
Handel’s opera Alcina, which
was filmed over three days in
Hastings, England with Barefoot
Opera’s ensemble of singers
and musicians.
This is a standing event, if you
wish to sit down, please bring
a cushion or folding chair.
Free, all welcome, just turn up.

Thresholds is a site-specific

with very different uses and histories. Each entrance
has its own set of architectural references, asking

10am - 4pm daily

Pope often explores
shape, colour and
form not necessarily allowing the viewer to
see the subject or allude as to how the image
was captured - ‘I prefer the subject to be more
ambiguous or even unapparent allowing one to
see what they want to see’. She is currently
found revisiting traditional black and white
darkroom processes.

First timers in Coastal
Currents Arts Festival,
our aim is to make more
art connections within
our local community.
We are going to be
exhibiting work created
by our children,
parents, teachers and members
of our congregation.
Around 1000 Year 6
children across Hastings and St Leonards have
created their own artwork exploring their ideas
of ‘Voyage’. Artist Ed Boxall introduced the
project to the children but each school and
each child has created unique, amazing work.
Ed has then made huge, handmade journals
from the work.
