The latest episode of Into the Mothlight looks at Lux and how they support artists working in the moving image. In their chat with Lux founding Director Benjamin Cook they touch on the history of the organisation, the collection of works they are responsible for and the importance of being able to access some works online. They also discuss the 1-2-1 advice sessions that Lux delivers for artists and the Lux Critical Forum.
