Artist Tacita Dean has kindly allowed us to use her Film Amadeus, about her crossing of the Channel from Boulogne to Folkestone in a trawler.
Amadeus featured in the 2008 Folkestone Triennial.
Dean made Amadeus (swell consopio) a 50 minute, 16mm anamorphic film, shot in real time, of crossing the Channel from Boulogne to Folkestone. The journey took place in an old fishing boat (‘Amadeus’) in rough seas at dawn in March 2008.
