Introduced and led by Simon Hart, Artistic Director of Puppet Animation Scotland and Dougie Irvine, Artistic Director of Visible Fictions, this seminar will focus on the development of SPARC, through contributions from participating artists, including Shona Reppe and Jamie Harrison, Artistic Director of Vox Motus.
