Cloch

1975 · 30 min

A quiet, tactile meditation on hands meeting stone, best watched with patience and attention to texture rather than story.

Directed by
Bob Quinn
Overview
Inspired by Cliodhna Cussen, Cloch is an evocation of the art of stone-carving, drawing on the work of James McKenna and on the Kilkenny sculpture workshop of 1975. Bob Quinn said about the project, “The main aspect that interested me was the physical relationship between a person and inanimate material.”
