FLOOR TALK #1- FROM THE ARCHIVE: THE MAKING OF FUTUNA

FUTUNA CHAPEL EXHIBITION - FROM THE ARCHIVE: THE MAKING OF FUTUNA

FLOOR TALKS

DESCRIPTION

The floor talks presented in Futuna Chapel will inform and enhance the experience and comprehension of Futuna Chapel, a collaboration of the Chapel architect John Scott, Chapel artist Jim Allen and the Building Brothers of Futuna.

This exhibition will, in words, drawings, images, sound and physical objects, explore the commissioning, architectural design, art works and the physical construction of this combination of masterworks.

This work was produced when John Scott and Jim Allen were both in their mid-thirties and constructed by a dedicated team of similar aged voluntary building lay brothers.

The exhibition will be brought to life with a series of floor talks conducted by Gregory O'Brien and Nick Bevin, co0editors of the book "Futuna - Life of a Building" (2016)
