Floating Worlds

At the heart of the University of Glasgow since 1807, The Hunterian connects people with stories, individuals and ideas found in stunning collections of objects, belongings and artworks.Today The Hunterian is a space for questioning and experimentation, for enjoyment and enrichment, for connection and collaboration and for reflecting on the role museums and individuals can play in furthering equity, justice and diversity in our society.We actively work to make The Hunterian a more relevant and meaningful place – for University students and staff, for Glaswegians, for Scots and for our global visitors.

Join us for the premiere of 'Floating Worlds: Erraid Sound', a collaboration between theatre-maker Graham Eatough and artist Andre Dekker

Kelvin Gallery

<h3><em>Floating Worlds</em> is an ongoing multi-disciplinary exploration of our relationship with the natural environment. A collaboration between theatre-maker Graham Eatough and visual artist Andre Dekker, the project offers an artistic response to some of today’s most pressing issues: the negotiations with landscape and climate amongst an ageing and sometimes isolated population. The first part of this project is presented here as a short film and book publication. </h3><h3>This special premiere of <em>Floating Worlds: Erraid Sound</em> (22 mins) is part of the current Hunterian exhibition <em>Dislocations: territories, landscapes and other spaces</em>. It will be introduced by Graham Eatough and the exhibition's curator Dominic Paterson (The Hunterian). All attendees will receive a copy of the artist's book <em>Floating Worlds</em> as part of the ticket price.</h3><h3></h3><h3><em>Refreshments served.</em></h3><h3></h3><h3>The Floating Worlds project is a co-production between The Hunterian, University of Glasgow and An Tobar &amp; Mull Theatre. It has been created in association with KNOCKvologan on the Ross of Mull.</h3><h3>With the support of: Creative Scotland; Daiwa Foundation; CBK Rotterdam; Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, London; School of Culture and Creative Arts and the CUSP programme at the University of Glasgow.</h3>
