Staffordshire St presents Stove by a Whale, a collaboration between Steven He and Seongeun Lee curated by Jiayue He.

Steven’s utopian fictions are envisioned through the making of objects whilst Seongeun translates the harsh realities of life into the language of dreams. Jiayue brings these two together to explore the notion of contemporary archives questioning how individuals connect to their roots and claim their identities.

A space where tides change, and the ground isn’t firm.

Steven and Seongeun have been larking in the mud, collecting objects from Thames beaches and their living environments to construct and combine materials where time and history differs & shifts with the moving tide. The site specific installation will embody the transient nature of immigrants, weaving a fictional story involving water, a whale and a ship.
