‘Keeping true to our Maidstone roots, inspired by the historic Market and loosely based on the success of “The Art car boot fair”, the “Art Market” provides a public platform to all artists, organisations, collectives and galleries across Kent and the South East. Open to all art disciplines the Art Market gives exhibitors an opportunity to sell their work to the public, build a relationship with potential buyers, galleries and curators. With an informal approach to the fair we hope to engage a wider audience to celebrate and enjoy the arts.’

AROUNDNORTH

A collaboration with The Bay Trust
Installation creator Robert Jarvis
Musicians Stina Wilson and Andrey Debedev
Artists from SEAS

7.00pm – 10.00pm The Pines Calyx, St Margaret’s Bay CT15 6DZ

An immersive evening of art and music, together with Robert Jarvis’ sound installation that takes its inspiration from the apparent rotation of stars around the Celestial North Pole. As the Earth rotates and the stars appear to move slowly around Polaris, the North Star, the installation tracks the stars’ movements and interprets them as an evocative musical score. The evening will give the audience the opportunity to explore KRONOS – a path around the grounds which demonstrates in time from the ‘Big-Bang’ until the present day.

Musicians Stina Wilson (flute) and Andrey Debedev (guitar) take us on a musical journey through time and space, bringing to life works from a range of periods in the romantic grounds and within the Pines Calyx building throughout the evening. Simultaneously, artists from SEAS create live art to respond to the event, the environment and concepts.

Although each exhibitor represents a different discipline, there is a commonality in theme, skill, creativity, aesthetics and the highest quality craftmanship.
