Songs of Salt - Whitstable Biennale 2-4th July


The Cave People are off to the seaside!

For their very first joint exhibition Cave People have created an immersive installation inspired by the rhythms and lyrics of traditional English sea shanties as part of the 2010 Whitstable Biennale Satellite program.

Songs of Salt is an audio-visual installation inspired by shanties and tales of the sea. Located in a beach hut during the Biennale, you are invited to lie back and immerse yourself in the narratives of those who have lived and worked on the ocean.

The beach hut will also host a LIVE shanty session at 7pm Saturday 3rd July lead by local folk ensemble Dead Horse Morris & The Ship Wright Shanty Crew! This will be the centrepiece of the event so DON'T MISS IT!

The installation will be open from Friday 2nd July - Sunday 4th July.

Come along for a drink and a riotous dusk sing-along on the beach!

The installation and live performance are based at Whitstable Beach at:

Hut 16 - Long Beach, Whitstable Harbour
Whitstable, Kent CT5 1BU
