Created using natural pigments gathered fro m the fort itself\; sandstone\, rust\, brick dust and burnt wood\, the fla gs carry the colours and materials of place. Through mark-making and abstr action\, the work draws on local myths and half-remembered histories\, sto ries passed down\, weathered by time and memory. Taking inspiration from t he semaphore signals once flown at Bidston Hill\, the flags reimagine thes e acts of communication\, transforming old messages through contemporary s torytelling.\n\n\nAbout Landlines Studio\n\nThrough the marrying of their individual creative practices\, visual artists Angela Stringer and Nicky P errin create site specific mixed media artworks which are grounded in plac e\, thanks to their collective use of natural earth pigments and botanical dyes.\n\n​Engaging with their local Wirral environment and beyond\, gat hering raw materials such as rocks\, soil\, clay and botanical matter\, th ey hand process these into fine pigments\, natural dyes and paint\, and la yer them over rust prints made with discarded objects.\n\n​Weaving in th e stories of a place\, acknowledging its history and significance\, the wo rk serves as a vehicle to consider heritage\, sustainability and wellbeing whilst establishing both a physical and metaphorical connection to the na tural world. Their work is a conversation with the land\, the past\, the s easons and each other.\n\n\n \;\n\nAbout Fort Perch Rock:\n\n \;\n \nFort Perch Rock is a coastal defence battery built between 1825 and 1829 to protect the Port of Liverpool.
