This film by Gerald Curtis is a short overview of Hogarth’s House and the stories it contains. The video walks you through the garden and the house, looking at some key exhibits in the collection.

This short film is part of the Creative People & Places Hounslow Visual Arts Programme project 'Depictions of Hounslow' by artist Martin Newth who was commissioned to create and curate a new film project with local people, exploring Hounslow’s identity, geography, culture and history.

The project began with Martin Newth exploring Hounslow to create a film essay titled ‘In Transit’, exploring narratives of shifts and changes; migration, culture and modes of travel, as well as art historical and contemporary depictions of Hounslow. Martin then extended an open invitation to the community to respond to the film essay by making their own short films through a series of workshops.

The resulting films, by members of the community aged 16 to 60, including pupils from Heathlands School, reflect on cultural diversity and harmony, as well as the rich history, and the urban beauty to be found in Hounslow.
