dc.description.abstractImages of the ceramic sculptures of John Perceval have been linked in this film to form a sequence of events. There are fanfares, amorous encounters and wrestling. The sculptures, which are paradoxically both robust and finely detailed, create a rather medieval impression. They are filmed to suggest activity even though they are inanimate, and the music is a vital element in the sense of movement and the heartiness of the dance.
