An Elixir screening and talk
with Sara Fletcher
Monday 11th June 8pm
Stroud Valleys Artspace,
4 John Street, Stroud GL5 2HA
tel: 01453 751440
Sara Fletcher has just completed an Elixir residency in the Accident
and Emergency department at Gloucestershire Royal Hospital. Elixir
is placing eight artists in eight hospital departments to make films
that explore the invisible or less understood activities of the hospital.
Sara's films, along with others from
artists around the country, selected
by SVA and artNucleus, will make up the two-year programme of Elixir
Screenings.
Sara developed a collection of new video works which explore the aspects
of the A&E environment which are routinely suppressed, hidden and
codified - both systematically (the use of established routines and
protocols for dealing with trauma and deaths) and personally (the ways
in which staff cope psychologically and emotionally with difficult
experiences).
