“If everything I possessed, vanished, suddenly,
I'd be sorry.
But I value things unpossessed.
The wind, and trees, and sky and kind thoughts, much more.”
– Dorothy Hartley
“There is a curtain, thin as gossamer, clear as glass, strong as iron, that hangs forever between the world of magic and the world that seems to us to be real.”
– E. Nesbit
Stone Club traverses Britain and Ireland’s ancient landscapes via the medium of shorts. From mysterious apparitions in Cymru, sculptural monoliths on the misty moors of Kernow, and a bouncy Stonehenge travelling across the UK, Stone Club offers visions that attempt to thin the veil, inviting us to re-enchant the landscapes we inhabit on a daily basis.
The screening will be followed by a Q&A with Jeremy Deller and Stone Club’s Lally MacBeth & Matthew Shaw.
