Alec Boyd - MA Filmmaking
The Wonderful Agency of Weeds
Alec Boyd is a filmmaker and artist based in the peak district. Working predominantly in documentary and non-fiction film, this piece The Wonderful Agency of Weeds is a portrait of artist and crafts person Hanna Varga framed around the exploration of where the worlds of craft and art intersect and is the culmination of two years of creative practice concerning these themes, under the over arching title Films of Craft and the Craft of Films.
This film is triptych in it's exhibition and comprised of three strands of depiction woven across three screens to emulate the process of weaving in a digital capacity.
