What's on Calendar Jason Wilsher Mills at Folkestone Triennial This is a unique chance to visit a newly commissioned sculpture by Jason Wilsher-Mills throughout the summer and autumn months - outdoors, as part of a major exhibition. The fifth edition of Creative Folkestone Triennial will run from Thursday 22 July – Tuesday 2 November 2021, presenting around 27 site-specific artworks by internationally acclaimed artists, inviting you to explore the town and its urban tales. Curated for the third time by Lewis Biggs, the 2020 Triennial, entitled The Plot, invites visitors to consider urban myths and their relation to verifiable realities: the gap between the story and the actuality. Best known for his digital drawings produced on an iPad, Jason Wilsher-Mills (b. 1969, England) also creates 3D figurative sculptures about the world that he experiences as an artist with disabilities (his disability is caused by a disease of the blood cells). Produced by Shape Arts as part of the Adam Reynolds Award, Wilsher-Mills has created a contemporary monumental figure – I Am Argonaut –that will be placed in conversation with the monumental statue of William Harvey, son of the Mayor of Folkestone, Royal Physician and discoverer of the circulation of the blood.
