Another Land - A Journey's end at Dunfermline Abbey

Friday 25th - Sunday 27th February 2011

Dreaming of - Another Land

Over three evenings in February, Another Land is set to be a completely original and stunning new creation in light and sound for Dunfermline Abbey.

The new project, created especially for the Abbey and grounds, represents the end of a journey into the distant history of Fife.

Dunfermline Abbey is the journey's conclusion, and within the space of the Abbey nave, Another Land will conjure a new landscape of raw and mesmerising beauty where the distant past will seem to explode and shatter into infinity.

The production's lead artist is Tim Fitzpatrick of Red Field Arts who was also responsible for The Pilgrim, a critically acclaimed work in light and sound, created for the abbey in 2008.

As the latest project in light and sound by Tim Fitzpatrick and Red Field Arts, Another Land has been in the planning for most of 2010 with the intention to build on many of the ideas behind The Pilgrim of 2008. In a way it allows The Pilgrim to re-emerge in a new chapter but one that reaches further back in time, before the life and time of the pilgrim.

The new work is a continuation of the style that Red Field are aiming to establish and is about creating an original approach to the use of light and sound, woven around a very distinct kind of storytelling, in public spaces and buildings.

Public light and sound events or shows - sometimes described as son-et-lumiere - are not new but Tim Fitzpatrick believes that the approach of Red Field Arts is new and that there are large areas of real creative possibility that have remained largely overlooked and unexplored.

Red Field are interested in creating landscapes in light and sound where new, enlightening and perhaps inspirational connections, can be made to key buildings and spaces through a drama or a suggestion of a drama.

Their idea is that the dramas, or narratives - which might be of any shape or colour - should be rooted in the spaces that they briefly come to inhabit and should have the power and the ideas to fill the spaces and allow them to resonate with infinite possibilities.

The intention is that an original work in storytelling or drama - based on an idea, a moment in history or simply a memory - could be seen to inhabit a real space in a way that immerses the audience in a completely new and often otherworldly landscape.
