Interview with Patrick Hughes - Jacob Harbord
"Patrick Hughes' painting in the British Library demands a double-take and I was taken aback the first time I strolled by- did that picture just move?"
Jacob Harbord is a student of observational documentary at Manchester University and this bizarre, paradoxical painting filled his head with questions that he wanted to answer through this film. How does it work? Where did it come from? Who made it? In 'Reverse Your Perspective...' we take a tour of Patrick's studio and explore behind-the-scenes of these fascinating works, discovering the enigmatic charisma of a man revolutionizing ‘the picture’ as we know it..

Interview
Jody Wilson has written an extensive, fully illustrated piece on Patrick and his work.
