About me: Live Art Falmouth (LAF) is an annual, two-day festival of live art. It developed in direct response to a growing need from students and artists within the region for an open, experimental platform and critical dialogue for live and performative work.
LAF took place for the first time in June 2007. A team of students from University College Falmouth in the UK, alumni and Penzance based curators Andy Whall and Delpha Hudson of Art Surgery collaborated in the development and curation of the event- the first of its kind in Cornwall.
More than 35 international, regional, and student artists contributed to an innovative programme of live and performance art, including interactive video installation, cutting edge technology, live VJ-ing, video screening of performance based video work, sound/sonic art performances and an artist led discussion. This two-day platform featured artists ranging from the emerging to the mature, those working locally to internationally, including University College Falmouth student artists and alumni.
This year, LAF08 is shaped by a committed team of student artists from UCF and from Dartington College of Arts, local artists and UCF alumni Paul Carter and Alexandra Zierle managing and mentoring the project.
