Harry Maberly graduated from Edinburgh College of Art in 2017 with a BA in Intermedia Art, and as part of this course he studied for an exchange semester at the Estonian Academy of Arts in Tallinn, Estonia. Recent exhibitions include Casual Nexus, The Glue Factory, Glasgow (2018); Simply Beaming, Screened at HOPE, Engaru, Hokkaido, RAT HOLE GALLERY, Tokyo and Embassy Gallery, Edinburgh (2018); The Waiting Room, The Number Shop Studios & Gallery, Edinburgh (2017).
 

Documenting his efforts and motivations as a Kate Bush fan, Harry Maberly makes recreations of the music videos for Bush’s Wuthering Heights and Babooshka. Combining performance and film, he investigates the phenomenon of fandom and the role of re-enactment in society’s consumption and regurgitation of mass media.
