Greenwich Fair Flickers


Commissioned by Greenwich and Docklands International Festival
​

Greenwich Fair Flickers is a journey through Greenwich Park layered with a surreal imagining of the Greenwich Fair of 1836. Tumble down the hill, slip backstage at a travelling show, fall in with some chance-met frequenters. In your hand is a flick book. As you flick the pages, animated images of the real environment reveal what happens next. 

Rachel Henson uses flick books to guide audiences through outdoor landscapes, layering photographic sequences with visual narratives.
