Description
Dumnonia maps out the intersection and interaction of people & landscape within Dartmoor.
Ritual, Science, Faith and Farming. A few ways in which humans have interacted with the Devon landscape. From The Bronze Age through the rise of Christianity up to the modern day, Dumnonia looks at the complex relationships we have with the ground beneath our feet. Walking through stone circles overlooked by granite quarries, the desolate and seemingly endless procession of plantations, listening to the orchestral movements of a geiger counter measure radon particles as flocks of chaffinch call across the expanse, menhirs now christianised crosses and gatekeepers called to service by ancient monuments.
