From the remotest pre-human galaxies, he gallivants joyously, accompanied by forefathers, great-grandfathers, deadads. And an always present and always absent daughter. Sometimes he dictates and she inscribes. They are quite an act. They are in this together.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Undershed, Bristol\u2019s new gallery from Watershed has opened its first exhibition for 2026, The Everyworld,<\/em> inviting audiences into a joyous collision of visions, fragments and memories from award-winning experimental filmmaker Andrew K\u00f6tting and his daughter Eden who was born with the rare neurological condition, Joubert Syndrome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Everyworld<\/em> celebrates the extraordinary creative collaboration between father and daughter, bringing together elements from multiple artworks created over the last 25 years. Spanning virtual reality,  giant inflatable \u2018Deadad\u2019 sculptures, the moving image, detailed sketchbooks and more, the exhibition is an archaeological deep dig into the creative heart of K\u00f6tting family life, celebrating the creative spirit, grief and togetherness. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two artworks sit at the heart of the exhibition. A new edition of groundbreaking immersive VR experience The Tell Tale Rooms<\/em>, ad15-minute father-daughter collaboration exploring Louvyre, their Pyrenean family farmhouse. Blending animation, archive material, and live action, it celebrates the wonders of Eden\u2019s rare syndrome and her distinctive fantastical world. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the Wake of a Deadad,\u00a0<\/em>sees two towering inflatables of Andrew\u2019s father and grandfather – the \u2018Deadads\u2019 – accompanied by a poetic looping film of a journey taken with the inflatables to places of family significance. From the family grave in Germany to nieces kissing the inflatable \u2018Deadad\u2019 in a brother\u2019s garden and trips to the Faroe Islands and Mexico, the piece is a powerful and surreal reflection on grief, memory and the tangled relationships many of us have with close family members.<\/p>\n\n\n
