Close Distance

Combination of film footage, of dancers, embedded in objects. Created for the magnificent rooftop Prospect Room at Wollaton Hall, with its views across the surrounding park and city beyond, offering a unique experience of an area of the house rarely visited by the public.

Artists have taken inspiration from the building’s history and inhabitants, exploring details like the 17th century embroidered costumes that belonged to the Middleton family and the Willoughby family who once lived in the hall, and the doors that separated the kitchens and servants’ quarters from the family rooms.

Collaborative work by Caroline Broadhead, Angela Woodhouse and Nic Sandiland, commissioned by Nottingham City Museums and Galleries with support from the Arts Council England Grants for the Arts a video installation.
