Collaborating with local communities; members, seniors, teens and school groups to create a collective portrait in tandem with the major exhibition 'Dreamlands: Immersive Cinema and Art, 1905–2016' full of incredible artists and filmmakers.

A return to Robert Burns Centre Film theatre - October 22nd 2016










Chris: One of the fantastic things about the Unravel project has always been the lasting relationships we've been able to build with individuals, organisations, families, filmmakers, directors and hosts. It's had a real impact on each of the Unravel members in their  practice and created long lasting friendships and working partnerships. So it was wonderful for me to return to the Robert Burns Centre Film and Theatre just short of four years later than my previous workshop : http://unravelfilm.blogspot.co.uk/2012/11/saturday-3rd-november-robert-burns.html
This venue really has something special, and one of the only places that came not just with its own 16mm projector but dedicated Projectionist. Comparing these two posts is something special, as you may notice some of the same participants who have grown up a little here and there in the gap between workshops.
A huge thank you to everyone who came down and participated - it was so good to return to Dumfries.
