Short Film Project with Amanda Stockley

Muswell Hill Creatives has an on-going partnership with Muswell Hill based filmmaker & photographer, Amanda Stockley to make short films showing our makers at work.  

Amanda approached MHC as she has always been fascinated in the making process and was keen to expand her portfolio to include crafts. Each film beautifully shows each maker's passion for their craft.

Inspired by Nature

A Bug's Life 
​Jess Albert

Jess' series of insect illustrations and paintings stem from an obsession with insects which started as a child when she took long walks with her theatre designer father in North London and Cornwall.  Jess’ work is about the beautiful and the grotesque, mixing the scary with the stunning as hybrid insects. The work draws you in with the beauty of a butterfly only to discover it has a spider’s legs, so may challenge a few phobias and create unease!  Recently Jess has been drawing on her craft of gilding and marbling so combining the inert with the living - a real mix of nature’s beauty

At the Wheel
Isabella Lepri Ceramics

Anthropologist Isabella has always enjoyed making things and when she encountered ceramics in 2007 it was love at first touch. She set up her home studio in 2013 and in 2017 moved into a pottery studio in Wood Green where this film was made. Isabella has since moved to Cumbria with her family and has set up a pottery studio nearby.
