Lucie Bea Dutton

I’m a textile artist and historian, and I have been handstitching work inspired by Hilary’s Cromwell Trilogy for over a decade, drawing particular inspiration from the stage productions. I trained as a film historian and my PhD focuses on the biographical films made by British director Maurice Elvey during the First World War, and so I have a longstanding interest in traces of material culture, the translation of life stories into other art forms, and the resulting tension between the historical record and fictionalised narratives.
