Sanctum Sanctorum

At the Camden Film Co-Operative

Jon joined Diana Mavroleon, his brother Tim and a host of others in an event that combined expanded cinema, painting, sculpture, ceramics and live music at the London Film Co-Op, London. The evening commenced with a hush and darkness and then Jon, unclothed and carrying a metal ladder, paint and paintbrush, walked to the front of the building and proceeded to paint out the huge mural which he had executed previously. The whitened plaster surface then became screen and backdrop for the events of the evening. Memorable.

Sanctum Sanctorum was part of the London Film Festival at the The London Film Makers' Co-Op. It was billed as featuring expanded Cinema, Installation and Performance. “We are working with themes that illuminate levels of doubt, optimism, ritual, profanity, sensuality, pagan, fetish, archaic, death, low-life and eclecticism.” wrote Diana
