Abstract

'Unpublished Tour' was a programme of events and art commissions devised by artist Irene Rogan, which ran between August and December 2021. It featured the input and work of ten artists from Cumbria and beyond, as well as other local participants who took park in a six-week long workshop with internationally acclaimed photographer, David Severn, and contributed work as part of their projects.

John Scanlan was commissioned by Irene Rogan to design a website for Unpublished Tour that could bring together a record of all the art work commissions, events and other projects that formed part of the programme and would contain a variety of materials - texts, photography, film and performance recordings.

The website was designed with the additional purpose of furthering John Scanlan's own complimentary research and practice-based work in West Cumbria, which is concerned in large part with developing the cultural ecology of the region, which is to say, bringing together and acting as a presence that connects the often disparate stakeholders, artists and other organisations doing cultural work in the region. The website, therefore, is at once an archive, but also a means of giving presence to the dispersed and little known artistic community of the region, and finally a means of presenting a place - the Duddon Estuary and the landscapes and places around its edges - through a variety of visual and artistic representations as collected on the website.
