 Droskyn Memorial Shelter

Perranporth

In 2025 I was asked to make a mural for the Droskyn shelter Perranporth, in the Duchy of Cornwall by the parish council. It became clear to me that a painting in this space would not have a good shelf life. I proposed to make three water colours telling a story of the area. The Droskyn Shelter as been transformed into a space that remembers the past. Its a place where the names of loved ones are engraved on stainless steel fish.

This is the story of a relationship between the land sea and the people who lived and worked here in the past and those who came here and loved the place by visitors. All who are now part of the history of Perranporth.

This is the story of how this site as been developed from its tired looking state to a brighter future.
