'Landfull' Exhibition


next

The ‘Landfull’ exhibition ran from the 25th September to the 30th October, 2004, attracting 2,017 visitors to the Museum.  The exhibition was a partnership project between, Janet McEwan - Visual Artist; Moray Wastebusters; Moray Council Libraries and Museums Service; Moray Council Environmental Services Team; Moray Council Arts Development Team; Forres Groups Action and Earthships Moray.

 ‘Landfull’ sought to raise awareness about environmental issues and contemporary art.  The project also supported the Moray Council’s new kerbside recycling collections, which aims to help people ‘reduce, re-use and re-cycle’. Various partners in the project also held a series of talks and workshops for the community, and school groups.

The exhibition in the museum was the work of visual artist, Janet McEwan.  The heart of the installation was ‘the midden’ – a domestic rubbish coup discovered at the end of her garden in Aberdeenshire.
