Join on Sunday 11 October at 6pm for an exp erimental film screening by Guy Sherwin and Lynn Loo, including Messag es (Guy Sherwin 1984), Conversations (Lynn Loo 2026), and th e very special Irish premier of Connemara (Guy Sherwin 1980). Ori ginally shot on 16mm in the 1980s by Sherwin while traveling within the Ir ish landscape and reflecting on structure, presence, and place, the film r emained unseen for over three decades and was lovingly restored by EYE Ins titute Amsterdam.

“Time is experienced through the film in a number of ways: traces of past human activity, static shots of long duration, the same places revisited in different conditions of weather and light, exact print repeats of some of the shots, exact repeats of ambient sounds (set against different images), an overall symmetrical shape to the film. I was also interested to discover what kind of aural and visual spaces the mind would create from the juxtaposition of conflicting stimuli.” – Guy Sherwi n

Lynn Loo&nbs p;is originally from Singapore and currently living in London. She taught music before making her first film in 1997. The influence of a poetic appr oach to experimental film began in Chicago at the School of the Art Instit ute of Chicago. On moving to London she learned a different, more tactile, film culture taking place in Europe. Her work looks into the possibility of sculpting time and space through the language of moving-image and the d iversity of technology. It includes single-screen films, multiple-projecti on performances, and installations in super 8, 16mm, and video.

Guy Sherwin studied painting at Chelsea School of Art be fore joining the London Film-Makers’ Cooperative in the early 1970s, where he learned the processes of film. The rigours of a material based approac h opened up all aspects of film making and exhibition as potential for exp loration. The various threads of his practice originated there: silent one -roll camera films; sounds made from camera images or by hand; playing wit h the material of the screen and the space of performance. His collaborati on with Lynn Loo has extended this approach into multi-projection and digi tal forms.
