Acts of Making

'Acts of Making' was a touring festival produced by the Crafts Council in 2015, and featuring the work of six artists: Catherine Bertola, Keith Harrison, Owl Project, Mah Rana, Clare Twomey and Richard William Wheater. 

We were commissioned to create a film that documented the works in the festival as they were presented at each of the UK locations – Bilston, Gateshead and Plymouth.  The film investigates the themes the artists are exploring within the works they presented.

In some cases, this film is all that remains of the performances, collaborations and installations that were part of the festival, as their ephemeral nature meant that they only lasted as long as they were performed or the public took part in the work.
