Staithes Stories – She Whom I Portray

A series of short films based on stories and anecdotes about the Staithes Group of Artists.

These tales were gathered from people who knew these artists, or remembered stories passed down from older relatives and friends, from the time when the Staithes Group of Artists lived and worked in the local community.

Artist and performer Bidi Iredale spent months tracking down these tales from people with a connection to the artists, before telling the stories from the perspective of a portrait of Pauline Pawson by Albert George Stevens. Bidi worked with film maker Ian Paine to record and edit these tales.
