Easy Sundays: Makin' Bread


(Sun 12 Feb: 2pm)

Makin’ Bread captures a telephone conversation between the artist and 91-year-old Dorothy at Maryfield West Care Home, Aberdeen while Dorothy is having her portrait drawn. The conversation begins with one of Dorothy’s carers Evelina helping to record Dorothy’s voice, and subsequently highlights Dorothy’s beautiful voice and gentle nature, whilst appealing to the audience to imagine the rest of the dialogue. As part of the film Dorothy and her carer give a critical assessment on the drawings made during the film with a great deal of character, with Dorothy drawing on her long experience as a school headmistress in Aberdeen to evaluate the work.

This event is a 20-minute film combining performance, live drawing, spoken word and music followed by a live Q&A. Presented by Kate Steenhauer in collaboration with composer Maria Sappho and filmmaker Alex Cormack.
