The Waste Land Trilogy - Parts I and II

  • Lisa Peachey
The Waste Land Trilogy is a series of three projects taking place in various newly defined exhibition spaces in London. The project seeks to interpret T S Eliot's The Waste Land through contemporary eyes. It is an amalgamation of different voices, each intimately echoing a movement within the poem, attempting to depict the soul of a sometimes vacant city full of fragile opulence, nervous masses, fading hope and malignant relationships.

My role as co-curator has taken the project from conceptualisation to realisation. As well as curating, installing, editing the exhibitions, I was responsible for the creation of publicity material and social media, and negotiating to secure sites for each individual event.

Parts I and II have been completed. Part III is in planning.
