Feedback: Sublime Film by Emma Dove
 | | (click the image to see Emma Dove's film) |
The Sublime programme concluded last November with a truly memorable evening in the atmospheric St Andrew's Cathedral. Filmmaker Emma Dove has captured the story of Stephen Hurrel and Mark Lyken's residencies at the Lighthouse Field Station. The film collages the visual landscape of Cromarty with the artists' observations and engagement by the public.
From the Black Isle, Emma studied film & media at the University of Stirling and her graduation film, On Another Note, has been shown at short film festivals internationally. The Sublime documentary is premiered at The Lighthouse in Glasgow until 13th February. For more details click here.

Lastly Diarmaid Lawlor (Head of Urbanism, A+DS) and myself have co-authored an article about being imaginative and flexible with public space. The piece will shortly appear in Canadian magazine CURB, but you can read it here first.
