Lally MacBeth is an artist, writer & curator based in Cornwall, England.
Lally graduated from Central Saint Martins in 2013 with a First Class Honours in Fashion History & Theory, and has since divided her time between being sensible and silly. Her work wanders the line between the real and the imaginary, taking in history, folklore, performance, ritual, and artifice along the way. She is interested in the links between high and low cultural artefacts and how these lines are often blurred in archives. Lally founded The Folk Archive in 2020, and co-founded Stone Club with Matthew Shaw in 2021. Lally’s first book The Lost Folk is published on June 19th by Faber.
