A podcast dedicated to artists’ moving image, experimental film and festivals and installation art. We talk to artists, programmers and curators, film festival producers and anyone else we meet whose work we enjoy or who we think you’ll find interesting. We will be asking people about what inspires them, how they approach their work, the highs and lows, how as artists we deal with criticism and self-doubt, and anything else that comes up.
In 2021 Andrew was the recipient of the Margaret Tait Award, this is Scotland’s most prestigious moving image prize for artists, and inspired by the pioneering Orcadian filmmaker and poet Margaret Tait.
The film that Andrew made from the award was On Clogger Lane, and this is the focus of this Episode of Into the Mothlight Podcast.

EP. 34 Julia Parks
This time, an interview with artist filmmaker Julia Parks.
Julia’s practice encompasses film, animation and photography, often using series of photographs and projected 16mm film. Through this medium, she explores the different relationships between landscape, place and people, often focusing on the west-coast of Cumbria.
Julia is currently living in Hawick as part of a 6-month residency with Alchemy Film & Arts as part of their The Teviot, the Flag and the Rich, Rich Soil programme.
In our chat we discuss Julia’s love for exploring the geography, industry and history of a place through the people who live there. We talk about her time at St. Martins College and hours spent in the darkroom. We also talk about her 2021 film ‘Seaweed’ and how she came to be interviewed about hand processing film in seaweed on the television programme ‘Countryfile’ - which - as the name suggests, is all about the British Countryside.
