The Garden plus Q & A

Sunday 30 March, 2025, 4.40 p.m.

The Garden + Q&A

Followed by a Q&A with The Garden producer James Mackay and costume designer Annie Symons, who will be joined by filmmaker Sarah Wood for a conversation chaired by Dr Dominic Paterson, curator of Digging in Another Time: Derek Jarman’s Modern Nature at Hunterian Art Gallery.

In May 1987, Derek Jarman bought Prospect Cottage on Dungeness. He planted an acclaimed garden there on its windswept shingle beach and in the shadow of the nearby nuclear power station. That same year, he met the great love of his life, Keith Collins. These two life events led eventually to The Garden, filmed around Prospect, and featuring Collins in a cast that also includes Jarman regulars like Tilda Swinton and Spencer Leigh.

Screening as part of the Derek Jarman: Modern Nature on Film season, programmed in collaboration with The Hunterian, University of Glasgow, which is currently presenting an exhibition focused on Jarman’s work in painting, film, queer activism and writing. Digging in Another Time: Derek Jarman’s Modern Nature is at Hunterian Art Gallery until 4 May 2025.
