Artists in Residence
Luke Fowler
This Trinity Term, we welcome Luke Fowler as our Artist-in-Residence. Luke is an artist, filmmaker and musician based in Glasgow. He has previously been a winner and has been nominated for the .
Combining aspects of structural cinema with documentary techniques, Fowler鈥檚 films shatter the limits and conventions of standard nonfiction filmmaking. Working with archival footage, 16mm film shot by himself and sound recordings made in collaboration with renowned sound artists, he complexly constructs and weaves these elements into film portraits of various 鈥渙utsiders鈥 such as radical psychiatrist R.D. Laing, experimental composers Cornelius Cardew and Martin Bartlett, Marxist historian E.P. Thompson or filmmaker Margaret Tait. Fowler鈥檚 own films and influences draw equally from experimental music, the Lettrist movement of the 1950s and 1970s independent cinema.
Fowler has cultivated a strong body of work that continues to rapidly grow alongside a multifaceted artistic practice that makes him one of the more dynamic and exciting artists working today.
