Three men in a row boat on a lake.

About Us

Eleven stories about boats, birds, sounds, the sweet potato, plastic and especially, people.

Take a row boat on Weston's Marine Lake and lap up the amazing stories within artist Luke Jerram's thought-provoking and immersive artwork, Crossings in this stunning, seaside setting.

Crossings is a new installation created by multi-disciplinary artist Jerram and BBC Radio 4 producer Julian May, which was commissioned by Compton Verney for its first presentation during the summer 2022.

Part art installation and part visitor attraction, Crossings consists of rowing boats, each filled with speakers that play recorded audio of stories from around the world.

Each boat trip is designed to last around 30 minutes with the real-time sounds and experience of rowing blending evocatively with the recordings.
