Fieldworks: Artist talk and in-conversation with Flora Parrott & Sara Trillo

30th April 2025

Turner Contemporary

Join Open School East and artists Flora Parrott and Sara Trillo at Turner Contemporary, as they talk about recent projects and ongoing research

5.45pm - 7.30pm

Sara Trillo will present a series of recent works inspired by dene holes (ancient chalk mines found throughout south east England), and the themes of positive extraction, sympathetic making, and regenerative planting that are contained within her sculptural, textile and artefact-based works.

Flora Parrott will present a series of recent projects that explore ideas of porosity, edges and perimeters, and the imaginative possibilities of the close-by, of worlds found in the cracks between the pavement or in the inside of your pocket.

Following the talks, Flora and Sara will hold a conversation about their individual approaches to ‘fieldwork’, an active process of artistic research that places the artist in and amongst a shifting and interrelated landscape, whilst drawing out threads shared between each of their work. The artist’s discussion will also examine the sensorial cross-over within their work, and the specific framework for materials which they set within their respective practices.
