Ethnographic Film Series
Inspired by and featuring the folklorist Henry Glassie, Field Work is an immersive and meditative film set among the rituals and rhythms of working artists in Brazil, Turkey, North Carolina, and Ireland. Glassie’s deep, abiding love for these artists resonates throughout the film. The Brazilian sculptor, Edival Rosas, describes his practice as one where body and spirit are integrated, where in Glassie’s words the creative act brings ‘a momentary fulfilment of what it is to be human’.
