‘Sui Generis - The Possibilities of a House’ was is an exploration of Plas Bodfa, a 100 year old manor house on the Isle of Anglesey in Wales. In April 2019, 66 creatives filled the empty house with 67 projects: performance and painting, collage and ceramics, skateboarding and singing, poetry and polyrhythmic drumming, fairytales and photography, games and gramophones, sculpture and storytelling, re-enactments and a retroscope.
