And in a special episode of EMPIRE LINES, artist Sovay Berriman and curator Marie-Anne McQuay join Jelana Sofronijevic to unearth histories of extractivism in Cornwall and Liverpool, and the relations between colonialism, clay, copper, and tin mining, tourism, and cultural identity, through The Thing About Making Rocks (2026).

This episode was recorded live as part of the public programme for Flamm 2026, Cornwall’s contemporary art festival, in Bodmin in February 2026. Find all the information online, and in the first Instagram post: instagram.com/p/DUVHQ7YjKUQ/?img_index=1
