Family Portrait
With humour and candour, this work shares an honest depiction of what family really is - responsibility, joy, balance, intimacy and, most of all, love.
About Family Portrait
Family Portrait is an interactive installation work, combining striking imagery and choreography, capturing Barrowland Ballet’s Artistic Director Natasha Gilmore and her three children in an intimate portrayal of family life.
With space to roam, the children encounter rabbit skulls, converse with spiders, make war paint with berries and discover the fun of burying their mother in bark. With humour and candour, the work shares an honest depiction of what family really is - responsibility, joy, balance, intimacy and, most of all, love. Filmed in the splendour of Scotland’s natural environment.
Please note that one ticket admits one household bubble for this event.
