Field Arts at CinemaARC University of Glasgow

Advanced Research Centre, University of Glasgow, 11 Chapel Lane Glasgow G11 6EW
Last year, FieldARTS brought together a dozen artists and researchers for a week of collaborative fieldwork along the Clyde River Corridor, tracing the sedimentary, infrastructural, and colonial lineaments of a manufactured waterway once recognised as the workshop of empire, now refigured as an engine of energy transition.
This screening programme — ‘river is an engine’ — presents archival films alongside moving-image and work-in-progress resulting from the residency and satellite projects. Featuring Alia Syed’s Points of Departure (2014) and original work by Matthew Cosslett, Nile Davies, EXTENSE [Dianne Burdon + Clara Hancock], Maria Howard, Pantea Armanfar, and Zsuzsanna Ihar.
FieldARTS is a research residency programme exploring fieldwork and practice-based methods for studying environmental, hydrological, and infrastructural sites. At present, the residency is hosted by the Infrastructure Humanities Group.
