THE GARDEN OF THE ETERNAL SPRING
ARTS FESTIVALBRIEF
This piece has its inspiration in the romanticised ‘Roman’ name for Horncastle, ‘Banovallum’. We drew the name of the piece from the naming process used at the different houses of Pompeii. All the images that you will see are animated from original Roman mosaics, frescoes and statues from Pompeii and Herculaneum. Karen’s sound work uses field recordings made in various locations also in Pompeii and Herculaneum. These range from the interior of villas through to birdsong environment recordings made in the Garden of the House of Octavius Quartius. The texts that are read are drawn from the ‘The Golden Ass’ by Lucius Apuleius. The vocal performance is by Eleanor Fry.
