I’m selecting these photos as I go through them chronologically, with the perspective of a few months distance.  In my mind, they speak for themselves, so I’ve avoided captions unless I can think of something to say that the photo doesn’t already tell you. But if you have questions, fire away!

April in the Country at Bow Arts

April 1 Triptych

Audio description of triptych image :

In March 2016, actor Margo Cargill and I travelled to the Isles of Skye, Harris and Lewis as research and development of a new film we’re working on. April in the Country will be a road movie following a blind woman as she travels to Scotland’s Western Isles in search of her mother. It hardly rained, there were zero midges, and I got a lot of great photos of radiant Margo and the stunning landscapes.

As you may know, filmpro has recently moved to Bow Arts, whose annual Open Studios event is May 17 and 18.  Music, booze, schmooze and people can come into filmpro studio and see projections of some of these photos, along with work by other filmpro artists Caglar Kimyoncu and Zeynep Dagli.

PLUS A triptych I created (see above) has been selected for the Bow Open group show, curated by Anj Smith. which shows at the Nunnery Gallery (same location) until 28 August.183 Bow Road, E3 2SJ

Open Studios: Friday 17 June 6-9 PM, Saturday 18 June 1-6 PM
