Do you like nothing better than a winter afternoon watching and discussing film?
Join us for a weekend of films by artist and filmmaker Helen Grace. Hear 10 local residents respond to Helen Grace’s work. Join the conversation with curator and writer Julie Ewington.
Over the last four decades artist and filmmaker Helen Grace has produced a body of moving image works, and includes film, video and animated photography works. These short films will be introduced by the artist in two open screenings. Ten local writers and creatives have accepted the invitation to provide a creative response to each of Helen’s films. What they have to say will surprise, delight and challenge.
