BBC Ten Pieces | David Lemm

Participating in the BBC’s nationwide project Ten Pieces, ATLAS worked with Edinburgh-based artist David Lemm to produce a creative response to the project. Working collaboratively with pupils at Portree Primary School, David encouraged an animated response, created by the children, to the Benjamin Britten’s Storm Interlude from the opera, Peter Grimes. The animation was selected to be shown at the BBC Proms at Royal Albert Hall, London in 2015.

Documenting his journey and considering the mountain as a whole, and not just the summit, Lemm created a series of screen-printed postcard which references a different part of the climb and the journey as it unfolded.
