Lines of the Hand: Walking, Place and Artists' Film in Hackney In an extended reflection on place and walking in Hackney, film curator and producer Gareth Evans explores five films made in the borough across the last 50 years by some of the UK's leading experimental filmmakers. Beginning with John Smith's Hackney Marshes - November 4th 1977 and Andrew Kotting's pedalo-engined Swandown / Bunhill Fields Artefact, the essay takes in Emily Richardson's Hackney Wick-focused Memo Mori and nine nine nine nine nine, Frances Scott's portrait of Beck Road. Making a cultural pilgrimage through Hackney to explore memory, recovery, lives lived and places lost, it concludes in Haggerston Park with Andrea Luka Zimmerman's pandemic portrait Shelter in Place. Gareth Evans is a Hackney-based writer, editor, film / event producer, creative consultant and host / presenter. He works on special projects for the London Review of Books and curates their Screen at Home series. https://garethevans.org.uk
