‘The Garden’ and the Waters
This is a Past Event and has been Archived.
The weekend continues with a showing of the late, great Derek Jarman’s iconic feature, The Garden – a poetic and moving series of dreamscapes, filmed entirely on the Dungeness shinglescape – with a striking score by Simon Fisher Turner. We finish with presentations by – and discussions with – artists and curators Ben Eastop, Rachel Lichtenstein, Manu Luksch and Simon Read, all of whom have engaged directly with the waterscapes of the country in innovative, creative ways. The conversation will continue over an ideas-facilitated lunch, to explore the themes of the weekend, in the Trask Café at 1.30pm.
