(Now that would be) Telling is a project by artist Hayley Lock and writers Jessica Hart, Lucinda Hawksley, Ben Moor, Hallie Rubenhold and Liz Williams. The artist and writers are creating site-specific works for five stately homes, embedding new portraits and uncovering parallel histories for these remarkable homes. Curated by Catherine Hemelryk, the project launches at Ickworth in July 2011.
