Exploring Commons: Artist talk: Saturday 22nd November / 2pm
Artist talk with David Blandy - work room at The Amelia Scott
Free, book here

In this insightful talk, artist David Blandy will share the ideas and inspirations behind Commons, his new film currently on show at The Amelia. The work explores themes of shared landscapes, memory, and mythology, drawing on the ancient woodland and striking rock formations of Tunbridge Wells Common.

David will reflect on his creative process and the significance of objects from The Amelia's heritage collection that helped shape the film's narrative. He will also explore how these objects, alongside the natural environment, inform storytelling, identity, and our connection to place.
