SUMMARY:Gu’un the fish n’that Story Sharing Event
DESCRIPTION:Do you have a story about a herring girl? Or an object that tells a story about the herring industry? Then come along and discover more at this drop in session with the artist Beverley Carruthers and members of the museum team.\n\nGu’un the fish n’that\, inspired by the cultural heritage of the women who worked as migrant workers in the herring industry\, is an evocative sound installation by East Anglian based artist Beverley Carruthers.\n\nInspired by the story of her own Grandmother Barbara Aliston\, Beverley compiled in depth interviews with the last generation of Fesh Quines exploring their stories through the labour and living conditions they endured alongside their enriching living history and cultural legacy of knitting and singing. Beverley has expertly woven these elements into this engaging and fascinating sound installation.\n\nBeverley’s work resists the romanticised version of the herring girls history\, which has often been marginalised anyway\, instead celebrating the women’s migrant labour and their importance to the fishing industry.
