Elevation celebrates emerging voices in artistic, experimental, and expanded cinema across southwest England, the UK and internationally.
The first piece in the puzzle of artist Daniel & Clara's Avebury Imaginary project, Notes From a Journey uses images and sounds captured during a journey through the British countryside to Avebury stone circle as the material for an exploration at the edges of human perception and reality. A film that has been described as a “visionary travelogue” and an “experimental folk horror”, Notes from a Journey invites viewers to take a trip through vivid colour fields, foreboding darkness, ancient mysteries and immersive soundscapes.
Mysterious transmissions, long-forgotten video posts, frozen images lodged in the mind, animation erupting from the unconscious – a programme of short artist films exploring the tensions between lived and imagined realities, with films by Adonia Bouchehri, Daniel & Clara, Duncan Poulton, Edwin Rostron.
I'm Here But I'm Not A Cat – a group exhibition exploring the tension between the digital and the material through works that express a desire to reconnect with lived experience and physical presence. Featuring artists Adonia Bouchehri, Daniel & Clara, Duncan Poulton, Edwin Rostron.

Monthly festival / A/V event "Live Soundtrack" is seeking for short or feature films without dialogue, which will be accompanied by alternative soundtracking and live performances by various electronic / ambient/ electroacoustic musicians, during the 8th season of the event (April - December 2023).

Join artists Daniel & Clara on an illustrated journey to Avebury stone circle and Silbury Hill, reflecting on a body of work made in response to these mysterious ancient sites. Working across moving image, mail art and photography, they explore the relationship between psychology and place, looking at how we imbue places with meaning, and how in turn landscapes impact on our state of mind and imagination.
For one weekend only Daniel & Clara's Landscape Imaginary comes to London with an exhibition at Lot Projects, Broadway Market Mews in Hackney.
An exhibition of moving image, polaroids and mail art exploring the relationship between psychology and place, looking at how we imbue places with meaning, and how in turn landscape, weather and the environment impact our imagination and state of mind.
