Description
Viewing Death Through a Creative Lens
Join us for a discussion with artists Judy Goldhill and Dr. Jane Wildgoose, Keeper of the Wildgoose Memorial Library (WML), as they discuss interconnections between their creative processes, in response to the aftermath of death, across a range of media and time scales. For Judy, these are pictorial rites of mourning: where light, ghosts and translucency meld into photographic, film and book forms. For Jane, the WML is an accumulation of reference material that informs her work as an artist and writer: a constantly evolving work in progress in which she focuses on the material culture of mourning and the history of collecting.
Jane and Judy are part of a peer mentoring group that meets regularly to explore common interests in the ways in which perceptions of death may interconnect with creativity.
