As part of The Waterfronts series Creative Folkestone are creating a new artwork with Chilean artist Pilar Quinteros @lapilarquinteros, who works across drawing, video and sculpture, often using inexpensive materials. Her practice explores how one is affected by the context of a place and shaped by its norms, often through interventions in public places. In Folkestone she will test her practice to create a new multi-faceted work.
