Resort is a series of off-site residencies experimenting with new methods of art making, communal living and friendship in remote environments.

In March 2014, a group of nine artists ventured to Peanmeanach, a remote peninsula in the Scottish Highlands.  They spent six days living together in a bothy and exploring the surrounding landscape. This was an experiment in communal living with the potential for artistic practice within a limited time period in a geographically isolated area. The works in this exhibition at Pallas Projects draw upon the experiences of the group during their time in Scotland.

All Things Crowd to the Mountain (2014) (scroll down to read) is a narrative text written in response to this experimental residency. It has been presented as both a performative reading and a printed text.
