The Eagle is Coming
On Nov10th the Eagle will land outside the Aqualibrium in Campbeltown.
The fifteen foot high steel eagle is swooping down about to catch its prey and the prey is .... anyone passing by!
Passers by are invited to enact their last few seconds before the eagle makes contact. There is a camera in the eye of the Eagle which captures these last few moments of drama.
Later that evening all of the video sequences are mixed with footage of sea, cliffs, waves and sky and drawings from children from Kintyre and Campbeltown Grammar School and projected onto the walls of the Aqualibrium.
The project also involves storytelling sessions in Campbeltown Primary Schools in October on tales and myths of eagles from around the world with Argyll storyteller, Patsy Dyer.
The Eagle will be collecting footage from 11am to 4pm and will be projecting from 6pm to 9pm
The event is presented by Arts in Motion for Argyll and Bute Council.
