About the artist
Derek Jarman (1942-94) was an English artist, filmmaker, costume and stage designer, writer, poet, gardener, and gay rights activist. Jarman is recognised internationally for his feature films and worked with key musicians and artists of the day, including The Smiths, Bryan Ferry and The Pet Shop Boys, producing music videos and film installations for live shows.

Alongside his work in film, Jarman was an outspoken campaigner for gay rights and was one of the few public figures in the UK to be openly HIV-positive. His illness prompted him to establish his seaside home Prospect Cottage where he wrote his celebrated memoir ‘Modern Nature’ and created an incredible garden, which has now come to symbolise life, hope and resilience.
