About Us

Back Lane West is an artist-led project space in Redruth, Cornwall. Its aims are to support and encourage critically engaged visual art practice and artists' professional development, while contributing to the building of a connected, critical, cultural community in the south west.

BACK LANE WEST + is a current ongoing project to both develop new links, collaborations, and networks with our wider region, nationally, and internationally, and also to research and implement new ways to develop a better engagement with, and access to, wider local and regional audiences.

The space was set up in 2009. It's current directors are:
Patrick Lowry, Jane Lowry, & Adam Clarke.
