Stuff the World is Made of + Steve Dilworth Q&A hosted by Robert Macfarlane

Ten years in the making, Stuff the World is Made of investigates sculptor Steve Dilworth’s clear-eyed respect for the natural world and his tough unsentimental response to nature’s indifference to humankind.

His art and working methods are examined in scenes from his studio on the Isle of Harris, and in interviews with collectors and well-known supporters of his work.

These include the award-winning nature writer Robert Macfarlane (The Old Ways, Underland) and the novelist and film maker Iain Sinclair (Pariah Genius, Downriver).

The film follows the creation and construction of a number of his sculptures from studio to foundry, including one of his most recent works, Guardian, which was commissioned by Marchmont House in the Scottish Borders.

It also reveals the final resting place of The Whalebone Box, which was the centrepiece of the Andrew Kotting film of the same name.

We're delighted that Steve Dilworth will be joining us after this screening for a Q&A hosted by Robert Macfarlane.
