The launch of Duncan Higgins new publication unloud that has resulted from a two-year collaboration between the artist and the design studio Dust, working together with the artist-publishers RGAP.

Alongside the book launch will be the first UK screening of unloud film a recent work made by Duncan Higgins and Fred Perkins. This collaborative 30minute film produced over the last four years connects and moves through the spaces and narratives of unloud. A copy of the unloud film accompanies the publication.

Set somewhere in north Russia at some point during the last 100 years: part fact, part fiction, part ghost story and part love story. The book and film are constructed through the inter-relationship of words and images, and recount a story within the landscape in which it is inscribed

In addition, dust will be presenting a visual and physical response to the process and content investigated during the publications development.

The first of a series of events coordinated by RGAP (Research Group for Artists Publications) [http://www.rgap.co.uk] at Site Gallery.
