A facilitated drawing session exploring mark-making, film and music with Sayat Nova Outtakes.
Presented as part of CINECITY The Brighton Film Festival
Doors & bar open 5pm, event starts promptly at 5.30pm, no late entry
A one-off ‘Draw to Film’ event for anyone who wants to explore drawing, mark-making, music and film in new ways. Suitable for all skill levels, from beginners to artists, this special event will be a sensory entry point into the world of film, with a special projection of newly scanned, unseen film footage and camera tests from director Sergei Parajanov’s masterpiece The Colour of Pomegranates (1969), inspired by the life and work of 18th-century Armenian poet Sayat-Nova.
This event, led by experienced artist-facilitator, Jane Fordham, will be an opportunity to view and respond to this unique film material. You will be drawing in the dark and will be encouraged to capture not what is necessarily there but your sense of what you see.
After the Saya Nova outtakes, a paired film piece will be screened to provide further context and inspiration to the drawing experience.
All necessary drawing materials are included in the ticket price, as well as a selection of tea and coffees. Participants will be invited to choose a setting which best suits them including easels, tables, board or the floor. Arrive early to secure a favoured setting. We recommend wearing warm layers.
Fabrica’s cafe-bar will be open on site, selling a selection of wine, beer and snacks.
Please note we are unable to admit late comers past 5.30pm so please arrive between 5pm-5.30pm to be admitted on time.
Suitable for ages 12 and up, under 16’s must be accompanied by a paying adult
