For the Serpentine Work Marathon Lily Cole and Impossible headed to the woods and the fields to meet Mark Boyle, who also goes by the moniker ‘The Moneyless Man.’ The Irish artist and activist is best known for creating the Free Economy Community, and for having lived without money since November 2008.
Living off grid—without electricity or technology—Boyle opens his doors to visitors who can choose to share his lifestyle for as long, or as little, as they desire. The residents of Marblehill, living “in full connection with the natural world,” spend their days tending the crops and plants on which their livelihood depends, while putting away the technologies, communities, and social structures which represent the often punishing pace of modern life.
