The Luddenden Shroud

The Luddenden Shroud is a functional object and art work about life and death.  The shroud and accompanying film explore many issues and questions relating to place, nature, ecology, indigeneity, grief and belonging. How can we come into right relationship with nature? How can creative practice and ancient craft help us reflect on how we live, and how we die? Can we approach death and dying in a way that enriches our lives?

The Luddenden Shroud was commissioned by IOU Theatre as part of Culturedale, Calderdale’s Year of Culture 2024. The shroud and film will be on show at IOU’s space in Halifax in the summer of 2024.
