Description
Six recent 16mm film works by British artist Emily Richardson. Emily Richardson's films explore landscapes and environments to reveal how activity, movement and light are inscribed in a place. Ranging across an extraordinarily diverse array of landscapes—from deserted East End streets to forests, North Sea oil fields, postwar housing estates and Cold War military installations—Richardson's films offer a dazzling deconstruction of space and time. They focus the attention of eye and mind on details, finding transcendence and emotion in the everyday. Richardson's films are distributed by LUX and have been shown in galleries and festivals internationally, including Tate Britain, Tate Modern, NFT, Curzon Soho, Artist's Space in New York, and at the Edinburgh, London, Rotterdam and New York film festivals.
