A
event
held at Arnolfini
on Friday 13th September. The event starts at 19:00.
Visual artist Angela Charles shares her story of unexpectedly losing her sight, and her experience of 'coming out' as a blind artist after years of hiding it as the self-proclaimed Queen of Bluff. Multiple voices weave narration and description: Angela’s iPhone (Daniel), a philosophising Audio Describer (Christopher Flowers) and Angela's mentor, the artist Bedwyr Williams. Over the course of the film they interact and respond to Angela as she explores notions of seeing, as she navigates a new creative path, and questions our preconceptions in asking us, 'What are you looking at?’
A film by Liberty Smith.
Produced by OSR Projects/Angela Charles/Liberty Smith. Featuring Angela Charles. Narrated by Christopher Flowers and Bedwyr Williams. Funded by Arts Council England.
