Nestled on the edge of Wirksworth in the Peak District is a beautiful art space in an old mill, Haarlem Artspace. 

They will be hosting Fieldwork, featuring live performances, film and art on 24 August. The exhibition will venture outside of the gallery to present art in the greenery surrounding. 

The weekend will incorporate several different artists to delve a bit further into the blurred lines between fiction and reality with David Steans’ performance. Then Tazelaar Stevenson & Michael Page will explore a combination of birdsong and dialogue in a musical chorus piece. 

There will be a huge emphasis on the land and leaving it exactly as found, with no traces left behind. Their plan is to move into a fireside debrief with several guests and speakers as the weekend progresses.
