Base Camp

FINNEMORE, Peter

We’re working on releasing this image.

'Base Camp is a series of 31 short films made by Finnemore in and around the family home in the Gwendraeth Valley in west Wales. The films establish the garden as an anarchic and irreverent "territory". We are encouraged to think of ideas of home, nation, and our place and the wider world. This body of work won Finnemore the Gold Medal at the National Eisteddfod in 2005. In the same year he represented Wales at the Venice Biennale.


We have a duty of care to all our audiences. This website draws on legacy collections data. We recognise that some of this information may be outdated or discriminatory and we're currently working to review our records. If you have any questions or comments on an artwork, please contact us.
