Title: Another Place 2000

Project Description:
A series of video portraits filmed in the north east of Scotland. Eight people from the Aberdeenshire village of St Combs took part in this work, each displaying an unusual level of self-containment and a clear affinity with their environment. The film considers a non-urban way of life that takes notice of ‘reoccurring patterns, that once sensed becomes hypnotic, almost addictive to those exposed. The work captures the extraordinary light quality of the Aberdeenshire coast; it is slowed down to a fifth of its original speed, and is accompanied by an ambient soundtrack.

This work has been purchased by Aberdeen Art Gallery for its permanent collection.
