Lauren McCarthy artist in residence at Metal Liverpool
In Liverpool, Metal works out of Edge Hill Station, the world’s oldest active passenger railway station. The original 1836 Engine House, Boiler Room and Accumulator Tower now serve as a cultural and creative hub for artists, the neighbourhood and Merseyside, carrying on the building’s proud history of innovation, aspiration and technology. Metal curates an exciting programme of international and UK artists in residence, host week-long, residential talent development labs for artists from mixed disciplines and run a wide range of events, exhibitions and participatory projects that connect artists to audiences and audiences to artists. Lauren will lead a week long series of activities that investigate the future of family and artificial vs ancestral intelligence.
