’Erraid Sound – Floating Worlds’ is an artist book and a short film by theatre director Graham Eatough and visual artist Andre Dekker (Observatorium). In September 2020 the artists spent one month in the remote coastal landscape to research ‘Erraid Sound’, the tidal flat between the Ross of Mull and the Island of Erraid. Through an exploration of our relationship with the natural environment, the project offers an artistic response in drawing, writing and film to some of today’s most pressing issues: our changing climate, rising sea levels, and an ageing and sometimes isolated population.The book contains texts and images that tell the story of a family living in a remote coastal community dealing with a recent bereavement and the elemental forces that shape their lives on a daily basis. A key inspiration for this project comes from both artists’ long-standing interest in Japanese culture, landscape, and the theatrical stagings of the intimate relationships between people and nature seen in Noh theatre.
