Talk:In Conversation: The Sea Horizon

National Museum Cardiff
Finished

Join us to hear artist Garry Fabian Miller in conversation with Martin Barnes (Senior Curator of Photography, V&A) and Bronwen Colquhoun (Senior Curator of Photography, Amgueddfa Cymru) about his life, practice and collaborations. This event has been programmed in conjunction with the exhibition Môrwelion/The Sea Horizon which is currently on display at National Museum Cardiff until 10 September 2023. 

Môrwelion/The Sea Horizon will be open for those that would like to view the exhibition before the event. Attendees are invited to enjoy music performed by Composition students from the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama in the gallery from 1-1:45pm. These new works have been composed in response to The Sea Horizon exhibition. 

The talk will be followed by a screening of five short films made by the artist in collaboration with Sam Fabian Miller. The films invite you to explore Garry Fabian Miller’s ‘camera-less’ practice that experiments with darkness and light, and weaves in work by the artists, writers and thinkers that have inspired him over the years, including Alice Oswald, Oliver Coates and Kathleen Francis.
