Volta Artists’ Moving Image is a newly established forum for artists, researchers and programmers working with the moving image and experimental film/video along and around the UK’s south-east coast.
We will meet once a month at different venues between Lewes, Brighton, Eastbourne, Bexhill, Hastings and St Leonards to connect, share work, and support each others’ practices.
Each session will last 2 hours. In the first part we will screen some short-form work on a particular theme accompanied by associated reading that will be circulated before the session. Two attendees can then present anything they’re working on for group discussion and friendly feedback. There will be room for open discussion in the final part of each session.
Every event is free and open to anyone with an interest in artists’ moving image and experimental filmmaking.
In the future we hope to host practical workshops and field trips, as well as to invite guests from around the UK to speak with us about their work.
Please send expressions of interest to [email protected] and we will sign you up to our mailing list to receive more information closer to each session. Please also get in touch if you’d like to present your work.
Join us for a guided walking tour of our four public works, led by two of our Associate Artists, Kai Zhang and Flo Wright.
