We are thrilled to announce that ‘Anthos’ from Ancient Greek ἄνθος, meaning “flower.” is now on display at Harewood House.

To celebrate the opening of this captivating dance-for-camera piece, performed by dance artist Christopher Fonseca, engaging in conversation with Sir Jacob Epstein’s sculpture ‘Adam’ (1938), Director Nicole Vivien Watson has written an article about the creation of Anthos, which is published on Harewood Houses’ website.

“In Adam, we perceive a sensuality that pervades valuable discourse surrounding identity, belonging, humanity, and the meaning of life, which are central to Epstein’s work and our film”. N.V.Watson https://harewood.org/anthos-surface-area-dance-theatre/

Anthos is showcased in the State Room at Harewood House from January to March 2025.

Anthos was made possible by grant awards from Arts Council England and the Henry Moore Institute. Special thanks to Harewood House for believing in this project and offering encouragement throughout.
