Overlie - film

By  Lorna Johnson 2019
A response to The West Yorkshire Hoard June 2019 Treatment: Disarray Outline, Material, Detail – Overlie, questions the different parts of the 6 gold and 1 lead object/s that make up this hoard; by viewing these parts separately, can the perceived value of these objects change? Does the viewer have a preference for just part of the object? The order and positioning of the objects denote the random order in which the objects were found; the chance finding, and sequencing of these hoarded objects is completely detached to the value or differing age of these objects. This film is made from drawings based on the photographs taken by Leeds Council – © Leeds Museums and Galleries –https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/ https://www.mylearning.org/stories/the-west-yorkshire-hoard-medieval-treasure/resources Exhibited: Deconstructing the West Yorkshire Hoard | Studio G.09, School of Fine Art, Art History, Cultural Studies, Leeds University – July 2019 Solo exhibition – To earmark | Project Space, School of Fine Art, Art History, Cultural Studies, Leeds University – July 2019
