Food places, auntie ran take away skills they can show through cooking, not traditional cuisine of Cornwall. Why doesn’t move to cornwall, situation, mom move somewhere nicer, no one moving down.

Subjects we spoke about, leaving cornwall, to go to london to pursue his dreams and job (ucl biomedicine in 1967) moved to camborne at 4, lived on an un registrered road when the train line went straight through the cricket pitch. Had dyslexia but wasn't diagnosed, went to truro cathedral school, so smart went a year ahead. Always wanted to do art parents first generation immigrants, so had to persue academia and was so bright seemed a waste. Used to be a lifeguard down at portreath which used to be a dumping ground for coal and has roadioactive sorces. Weird connection everyone in family on both sides had either a mini or beetle as first car and further. Went to uni and was in international halls, was regarded as an outsider because from cornwall and 'maybe' because of irish side. London in 1960's ect... lived in islingston, moved away to wisconson midwest. Then focused again more on the idea of being from somwhere 80 years on and i asked if he still feels cornish and when he comes back does he feel like a local or more a tourist, has a second home here, idea of not belonging how long are you away from somwhere until you belong to someone/somewhere else? Strong family connection to cornwall. Interesting tests and writings on plants, bio oils, algae, bio diesel such as rapeseed. 80 papers and 4 books published and highly commended. Said he was jealous of neythan (my dad) when he said he wanted to move back. 'doesnt know if he's doing the right thing but wouldnt want to regret never doing it, as regarded childhood moments in cornwall, as favourite times. Said going back to cornwall would always stay in lanner -  on the farm, Morwenna (my great grandma named after) was a wonderful cook and would constantly host and invite people over - similarities between her and my dad. Visiting Newquay to see vivyanne. Barely recognises how cornwall looks now compared to back then,

Objects out of place to symbolise mentality of an outsider
Draping garments in completely different concept across the body, distance, space between fabric and garments. Explore tension between knit and textiles, similar to that of relationship between tourists and Cornish public. Furthermore between outsider and insider, to be within and out.

In Scotland they have specific sweaters depending on which village so that when men were lost at sea they could find out where they were from. I want to do something similar to this in Cornish context having specific knitting styles and textures for different coastal villages in Cornwall. Having almost like starter packs.

Mark Jenkins film Bait is based on a man (Martin Ward) a pessimistic fisherman who resents the tourists who are inhabiting their village. They are forced to sell their late fathers harbour front cottage to Londoners who only live there during the summer and airbnb during the peak season months. Furthermore having to use the families fishing boat to give tourists sightseeing tours. He is disgusted by the careless abusive behaviour of these tourists.
A film which for the first time takes a perspective of the Cornish public juggling the juxtaposition of the benefits of money from the bustle of visitors, compared to the ridicule and exploitation of these small communities and natural environment. Alongside the monochrome cinematography desentimentalises the Cornish landscape, turning it into an anti-picture postcard. This film translates my perspective and varied views of the effect of tourism in Cornwall.

Bolster day is a paegen festival held in St.Agnes. Long ago Cornwall was apparently full of marauding giants and one of them, Bolster, terrorized the good folk on the north coast regularly eating their children. To celebrate Bolster’s eventual demise, the villagers of St Agnes hold a pageant every year starting with a lantern procession, bonfire and barbeque.  The following day the Knight Sir Constantine and the bolster drummers parade the streets of the village in search of Bolster (a giant effigy) ending in a dramatic confrontation on the cliffs above Chapel Porth Beach.

The feeling of being estranged with your parents and then reaching a ground where your relationship changes I think happens with age and maturity. Having things in common and subjects to talk about, side effects of growing up.

Since I was born my parents every week in may would rent this house called cliff cottage on the rural south coast of Cornwall. Until the age of 7 I would come on my holiday as a tourist to Cornwall. Until I moved down and became a resident at what age after living in Cornwall for a set of years was I no longer considered a visitor and outsider? From when are you officially from somewhere, what makes me a Cornish citizen? When are you really 'from' somewhere and why when people ask if I'm English I correct them and say no I'm Cornish.

From the four separate houses I have grown up in, a print of this painting has always been on a wall in the kitchen. I would always stare at it and imagine it as a different world, in my imagination I would live in the church with my siblings and we would run across the sand. From the age of 7, every Saturday I would go to this exact beach to surf life save until I was 15. Sometimes when I daydream this painting comes back to me like it's tattooed on my mind, a place I've been so many times. I wonder if I no longer live in Cornwall or see this painting it'll no longer be in my dreams. The best distraction is daydreaming, this is the best daydream, we find solace and comfort in things we remember as happy memories.

What really makes you come from somewhere, I wasn’t born in Cornwall and spent the majority of my childhood growing up in south London, but if you asked me where I’m from I’d never say Peckham, I’d say Cornwall. Am I stringing off my dad’s heritage instead of my own and my mums.
