THE GAINSBOROUGH PACKET
Matt Stokes
2009

10mins s16mm

Commissioned by 176 and Baltic Centre for Contemporary Art and directed by Newcastle-based artist Matt Stokes.

Stokes’s works combine film, performance, music and installation. His varied practice is akin to social anthropology and often requires a prolonged period of immersed research into a particular subculture.

'THE GAINSBOROUGH PACKET' is based on a letter found in the Tyne and Wear Archive telling the life story of John Burdikin who came to Newcastle in 1796.

Matt Stokes is represented by Workplace Gallery.
