Tim Stead: Magician With Wood

The legacy and masterpieces of late wood sculptor Tim Stead are under threat. His extraordinary home, The Steading, is a Grade A-listed work of art in Scotland - a lifelong project of organic form, skill and love that he carved from wood. However, it is an uphill battle for Maggy Stead and her friends to save Tim's lifeworks for future generations to be inspired by. Tim Stead started the first UK community woodland back in 1987, was a passionate educator, brought mesmerising shapes out of wood into furniture, art installations and interiors, and wrote poetry. Yet, few have heard of this trailblazer - will The Steading be preserved, or left to be forgotten?

Claws

Longley's graduate film, CLAWS, utilises cuts and collages of scanned recycled and archived print to bring the tale to life. The animation drew inspiration from iconic pop culture references, including the chase in JAWS and the playful antics between Tom and Jerry. The sound was designed by Alex George and nods to Henry Mancini’s theme for The Pink Panther. The animation’s goal was to combine a timeless narrative using classic 2D animation techniques and attentive craftsmanship. Through this work, Nim aimed to showcase her artistic vision while staying true to the essence of traditional animation.

The Princess Royal, accompanied by Vice Admiral Sir Tim Laurence, alongside actors, musicians and currently serving military, will help mark the memories of those who took part, to hear their voices and to honour those who never made it home.
