Professional Development Seminar: Artists\u2019 Film and Narrative<\/h1>\n
\n

April 9 @ 2:00 pm<\/span> – 4:00 pm\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

at\u00a0Porthmeor Studios, St Ives<\/h2>\n

This professional development seminar for artists will explore the use of narrative in artists\u2019 moving image work and will be led by artist and filmmaker Anya Lewin. Although there has been a trajectory of artists working with moving image in the gallery going into theatrical feature filmmaking, the seminar\u00a0concentrate on how narrative can sit un \/ comfortably within the gallery space.<\/p>\n

Participants will explore the use of multiple narratives through multiple screens; how the viewer might become situated or implicated as part of the narrative; and the spatial construction of narrative, including how the gallery can function as an extension of cinematic time and space. Anya will also consider simple logistics, such as comfortable seating, and why this sometimes goes against the aesthetics of the gallery environment. Participants will view work, discuss and develop ideas together.<\/p>\n
