THE CINEMA OF SMALL GESTURES
Ben Barton | Short Film Night at the Quarterhouse

Working on hand-spliced super 8 cine film, Folkestone-based artist Ben Barton creates visual poems that bring Hollywood glamour, fairytales and dancing insects to the screen in a series of scratchy and imperfect collages.

Recently broadcast by the BBC on its 'Big Screens' and also on Sky TV, these works have also been selected by over 25 film festivals worldwide. This however, will be their premiere in the artist's hometown.

SHORT FILMS BEING SCREENED INCLUDE:
Little Red • Getting Ready • 5,000 Miles From Hollywood • The Return of Ellen Love • Uphill for Jesus • Insects • Stag Movie • Initial Prospect • The Lighthouse • Dance of the Coward.
