Description:
Further exploration of the theme of origin, identity, and the links between the interior and exterior landscape through a programme of new experimental/narrative works from Britain.


The new tape from always inventive Steve Hawley (receiving its first public screening) is a kind of sequel to the much-acclaimed 'A Proposition Is A Picture'.


Like that earlier work it takes the form of an engagingly meandering literary tour, which brims with rich and unexpected connections between the realm of the image and the domain of language.


Plus three recently completed shorter works by Mike Stubbs, Jo Pearson and Breda Beban and Hrvoje Horvatic.
