Outwork - Installation at Newhaven Fort closes, Spring 2024

Outwork proposes a defensive imaginary for Newhaven Fort; one in which it can monitor sonic events across the locale, where its provision for coastal auditon could play an role alongside the National Costalwatch; which rose to fill the gap left by the ‘rationalisation and modernisation’ of the Coastguard.

Outwork was installed at Newhaven Fort, East Sussex, UK between Autumn 2018 and Spring 2024.
