Hart of the Wood: Newstead Abbey

🌳 Explore our grounds and gardens, and immerse yourself in the folklore of the forest with 'Hart of the Wood'!

'Hart of the Wood: Newstead Abbey' is an interactive film sculpture commission inspired by the ancient trees of Sherwood Forest. Original, dream-like films draw on the mythology and folklore of forests, exploring our deep connections with nature.

Located in what was once the heart of Sherwood Forest, take a journey in to the myth of the greenwood, where masked characters such as Long Tongue perform strange rituals, and shadowy hooded men stalk the woods.
