DUNVEGAN CASTLE THIS WEEKEND!


Our documentary artwork Belief is showing this weekend on Skye.  The work is being exhibited in the south wing of Dunvegan Castle in close proximity to the Fairy Flag iconic talisman of clan MacLeod, which is used as the starting point for this unique installation.

Belief is made from information found entirely on the worldwide web. In fifteen minutes, this two-screen installation presents a series of fragmented broadcasts about belief, all sourced from the video sharing community YouTube.

Belief is the final work in the Flat Earth Trilogy following on from Flat Earth (2007) and A short film about War (2009/2010). Supported by Creative Scotland's Vital Spark programme, New Media Scotland's Alt-w Fund, ATLAS Arts and Animate Projects. Software development by Matthew Jarvis, sound design by John Cobban and script development by Alison Craighead, Jon Thomson and Steve Rushton. Graphic design by Cavan Convery.
