Set in the grounds of a 17th century country manor house formerly inhabited by Ian Fleming and the family of Marianne Faithfull, SUPERNORMAL is an art entertainment event for an exclusive audience of eight hundred, less a conventional festival than a generated artwork in itself.
Art organisations from OPA Guadalajara Mexico to Aspex Portsmoth, are creating new works fro SUPERNORMAL, a visual art, film, music and 'in conversations' programme situated across fifty acres of quintessential English countryside. Professional artists selected to create SUPERNORMAL present ideas and working processes in a variety of disciplines and media, representing the breadth of contemporary practice and issues from the political to the personal.
SUPERNORMAL will inhabit and incorporate the varied buildings on site including a Gothic Manor Performance House, Caravan Discotheque, The Grain Store Talks Programme and The Luna Cinema. The live entertainment programme features krautrock legends Faust headlining a specially selected and wildly diverse bill comprising art rock independents, psychedelic visionaries, garage-fixated hellraisers and acoustic troubadours alike, with premium quality DJ action following into the night and beyond.
SUPERNORMAL is an eco site with hout outdoor showers, fresh drinking water, local food and breweries providing organic seasonal produce, with not a portaloo in site.
Branding by This Is Studio.
