Artist Sam Williams commissioned to create new film 4

We’re pleased to announce that artist Sam Williams has begun working on his new film commission for the Sculpture Trust. Sam’s film will delve into the history of the Trail, offering insights into the conversations between the early artists who created its first sculptures.

Sam is an artist with a practice that intertwines moving-image, collage, choreography, sound and writing. His ongoing research focuses on multispecies entanglements, ecological systems, bodies-as-worlds and folk mythologies and how they propose possibilities for present and future ways of non-human-centric living.

Sam is based in London where he is a resident at Somerset House Studios. He has presented work at institutions including Chisenhale Gallery, Arnolfini, Siobhan Davies Dance, Somerset House, Tate Britain, Studio Voltaire and South Kiosk (UK), She Will (Norway); Röda Sten Konsthall (SE); Kino Arsenal, Akademie der Kunst, Tanzhalle Wisenberg and B3 Biennale (Germany).

Details to follow on the final film due for completion in 2024.
