> Project Description
Over three days, 7, 8 & 11 December 2006 twelve friends of SHOWstudio came down to the live space to create one of 12 Days of Christmas videos, each decorating a Nick Knight silhouette of Gemma Ward with Swarovski crystal. In addition to webcasting the live event, each contribution was filmed from above and the footage was edited into a special film that was offered on SHOWstudio on each of the twelve days of Christmas (26 December – 6 January). Starting 7 December, set up day, viewers watched inspired hands at work to get a sneak preview of the final result.
The 12th Day of Christmas
On the twelfth and final day of Christmas Gareth Pugh’s contribution completes our collection of films that make up the SHOWstudio ‘12 Days of Christmas’.
