Oona Grimes: Hail the New Etruscan #2

19 Jan-27 Jan 2019

Overview

In 2018 Grimes spent 8 months on a fellowship at The British School at Rome. As she worked, her thoughts kept returning to Italian Cinema - from the Neorealists to late Fellini. She took walks in the early morning to enjoy the city before the crowds; gradually the walks and the films got woven together in Grimes thoughts, dreams and work. Grimes began to make video recordings, not acting she says, but 'drawing the moment.'
