Spirit Messages is a touring programme of six artists' films curated by the prominent Dublin-based initiative for artists' moving image aemi. Their annual selection brings together some of the most exciting new moving image work by Irish and international artists. We are delighted that they have included CAST in this year's tour and will bring the three Irish artists from the programme to Helston to speak about their work. 

The films in Spirit Messages draw from an eclectic array of sources to reveal an interconnected paranormal world, with references including folk tales, esotericism, poppers, horror films and science fiction. The programme features work by Amanda Rice, Niall Cullen, Ross McClean, Jamie Crewe, Luis Arnias, and Dan Guthrie. A trailer can be viewed here.
