Option 664


The Synod of Whitby occurred in 664 AD. It was a defining historical event, deciding the Catholic over the Celtic Path in Anglo-Saxon England. Whitby Abbey is steeped in history and the beauty of art. My interest in art, history and spirituality combined to inspire me to make a film with help of photographer Reg Moore. It was picked up by Whitby Tourist Office and currently has 10,000 views.

The film is on this page as well together with related works of mine. I have included some of my ‘Green Man’ works here too as they seem to be a good fit - probably more in the Celtic than then Catholic tradition?
