Millgrove Art Attack!
After the months of lockdown in late 2021 (and post lockdown) hundreds of photos of Millgrove life were submitted, by the community and also on a couple of photowalks led by local photographer Suzanne Phoenix. These became part of a sold out stunning mobile projection lightshow called Millgrove Art Attack on Saturday 9 April 2022!
Writer, performer, producer and studio head at Pharmacy Studios - Richard Andrew of ARIA awarding winning band Underground Lovers, composed the music to accompany the projections, inspired by the photographs of Millgrove. Michael Veitch also stepped in at the last minute to MC and provide the introduction to each projection tour.
The Little Projector Company collaborated with Suzanne Phoenix to bring this project to life. The short documentary produced by Ian Bickerstaff and scored by Richard Andrew was premiered as part of Warburton Film Festival on 18 June 2022.
