IOTA in collaboration with the University of Aberdeen’s School of Biological Sciences hosted two artists in residence at the Lighthouse Field Station in Cromarty.
In a response to the maritime environment of Cromarty, Stephen Hurrel’s film, Dead Reckoning, featured cinematic images of the immediate environment, together with underwater video and sound recordings, to create a dialogue between ‘above’ and ‘below’ the waterline.
