EYE OF THE STORM

In this film we follow James Morrison, widely recognized as one of Britain’s finest landscape artists, as he faces his greatest ever challenge. His work hangs in the homes of JK Rowling and the Royal family, as well as in museums, and private collections around the world. But now his eyesight is fading fast, and he has one more major painting to complete. As Morrison reflects on his remarkable artistic journey, from the Glasgow shipyards, to France and the vanishing arctic wilderness, the film becomes a powerful and poignant exploration of what it means to be a landscape painter. Eye of the Storm is also the universal story of a creative mind dealing with the physical frailties that catch up with all of us. Winner of a Scottish BAFTA.
