Dr Chris Dooks
Interdisciplinary Artist
Séance [2019]
Séance is a collaboration between myself and the writer Eleanor Thom [The Culture Show, Duckworth, Edinburgh Int. Book Festival]. The idea was to see what counterpoints could be created pitching an artist against a writer, both under the same writing brief.
We wrote several short, fictional stories around Edinburgh Marine Gardens, near Edinburgh's beach, Portobello. The Marine Gardens is now car showrooms and a Bus Depot for Lothian Buses.
Our styles are very different, but perhaps this made for an entertaining night when the works were performed live.
Published by Risotto Studio, it is a commission from Art Walk Porty - a community arts organisation in East Edinburgh.
