Your Words and My Mouth is a two-day exhibition and live arts event which will be held at
Hospitalfield House, Arbroath on the 22 and 23 September, 2007, from 2-10pm each day.
The event features the work of 21 contemporary practitioners, comprised in an exhibition of
visual art, performance, music, film and sound work.
The historic Hospitalfield House and its grounds will host a wide range of practices from
painting to experimental sound work, providing a significant and challenging context in which
to exhibit contemporary art; the house and its cultural and architectural heritage acting as a
catalyst for many of the artists. Hospitalfield House has also facilitated a number of
residencies and supported the production of site-specific works in advance of the event.
These will combine with the new works from the international and nationally selected artists,
including: installed-sculpture, film, print, installation and performance.
Your Words and My Mouth exhibits new work from all artists and champions the results of a
number of first time collaborations. Artists showing works produced while in residence are:
Neil Clements, Craig Coulthard, Sam Kennedy, Catherine Street. A commissioned edition of
screenprints by David Sherry has also been produced and Swedish artist Karl-Jonas (Blood
Music) will launch his new album, followed by a live set with guest musicians. Other exhibited
works and performances include a new installed-audio-piece by Ilana Halperin from the
ongoing project 'Toward Heilprin Land', and the unique opportunity to hear renowned
storyteller Duncan Williamson and the acclaimed Scottish musician Alasdair Roberts.
The history of Hospitalfield’s substantial cultural links provides a powerful backdrop to the
works, which though not exclusively site-specific, invite new interpretations when viewed in
this context.

performance programme running from 7-10pm on both evenings.
