Last year, FieldARTS (https://infrastructurehumanities.gla.ac.uk/fieldarts/) brought together a dozen artists and researchers for a week of collaborative fieldwork along the Clyde River Corridor, tracing the sedimentary, infrastructural, and colonial lineaments of a manufactured waterway once recognised as the workshop of empire, now refigured as an engine of energy transition.
This screening programme — ‘river is an engine’ — presents archival films alongside moving-image and work-in-progress resulting from the residency and satellite projects. Featuring Alia Syed's Points of Departure (2014) and original work by Matthew Cosslett, Nile Davies, EXTENSE [Dianne Burdon + Clara Hancock], Maria Howard, Pantea Armanfar, and Zsuzsanna Ihar.
