Willie Dogherty at QFT

WILLIE DOHERTY: GHOST STORIES

QFT has proudly teamed up with internationally renowned visual artist Willie Doherty on a series of screenings to coincide with the return of the Ulster Museum's permanent collection featuring the exhibition of his haunting video piece, Ghost Story (2007).

This personally curated season of films expresses different areas of influence on Doherty's practice, including themes of surveillance, paranoia, the effects of the ‘Troubles', intrusions on private moments, and psychological responses to trauma.

Much like the artist's own work, his chosen films will make us ask, is the audience really so distinguishable from those behind the CCTV cameras?
