Director/Designer and Installation artist Geraldine Pilgrim is also the artistic director of Corridor, a performance company she set up in 2000 to create site-specific events often working in collaboration with young people, older people and arts and community groups.
Geraldine Pilgrim's particular site work specialises in performance installations in unusual buildings. The architecture of the site is used as the narrative, gradually revealing memories, atmospheres and subtle essences that have built up over the years.
The performances
appear to peel away different layers of wall paper, to release the ghost of
the building’s past whilst being aware of its present condition and
imagining its future whilst integrating histories - imagined and real - of
the space.
