Portraits of the Working People of Somerset
Gallery
6th April - 5th May

An Installation by Terry Flaxton
Produced by Charlotte Humpston of Visualfields

Portraits of traditional rural industries and crafts of Somerset go on show this Spring at The Black Swan. They have been documented by Somerset cinematographer, Terry Flaxton, thanks to a grant from the Heritage Lottery Fund. The award enabled Terry to film portraits in ultra high resolution of local craftspeople practising traditional skills, many of which go back to medieval times. The portraits were filmed in Glastonbury Abbey Barn last summer and the dramatic images will be projected large-scale in high definition in the Gallery.
