Closing/Close By - Michael Curran and Imogen Stidworthy

Michael Curran, Imogen Stidworthy and Chris Darke

An arresting and evocative meditation on the power of cinema and storytelling.

The artists' voices carry into an adjoining space housing a large-scale projection of a looping film sequence shot in the deserted Maryon Park, London. Used as a location in Antonioni's Blow-Up, this space has been aptly described by writer Iain Sinclair as a seductive secret theatre. Echoing with the sound of wind and birds, it evokes a sense of anticipation and unease as well as seeming symbolic of the remembered landscape that the story-tellers have perhaps left behind.
