Landings : New work by Bandit Campbell & Lois Eastburn

Mezzanine Gallery
Exhibition Run: 18 May – 7 June

The show Landings is meant to be about land justice. It sprawls across the mediums of speculative fiction, oral history, and foolish clown behaviour.  Exploring how histories are inscribed into the land, Bandit and Lois experiment with archival material, interview, youtube brainrot, and wool.
It’s something to do with asking: who is this place and what are we doing here

Bandit is a writer and artist whose work is informed by their activism and nebulous transness. Lois likes experimenting across crafts and are inspired by histories of political resistance.

Together, as friends and accomplices, they are even more powerful. They’ve made lots of things together like drag performance pieces, graffiti murals, and situationist poetry zines. They both stay in Stornoway but grew up around London.

Clàr is An Lanntair’s digital creativity programme for 14-25 year olds, we host weekly workshops in a range of topics, from music production to video game design. In 2025 we have supported 2x young artist commissions in visual arts and  music.
