Welcome to
'Treasure Island: A Forensic Investigation of a City'
Series 3: Portsmouth UK
By Artist Seran Kubisa
In partnership with Portsmouth City Council
Arts Council & SEEDA Arts + 07 Final Award for Innovation
Project running 2007-2010
150 Artworks created through the use of traditional fine art approaches with new technologies, one of the largest innovative archives in the U.K.
204 Artefacts have been investigated, catalogued and fragment collected. The fragment touched by generations past is scientifically analysed for fluorescence and its physical worn influences, allowing resonances of the past to seep into the analysis and creative process.
Investigation Top Ten Locations:
The Mary Rose, HMS Victory, Portsmouth Football Club, Age Concern, City Museum, Chinese Community, Spitbank Fort, DDay Museum, Hilsea Lido, Women's African Forum
“We were very pleased that Hilsea Lido could be included in this very important and interesting artistic project. ” Jane Smith, Hilsea Lido
