Following Harman as he endures the intense and physically demanding task of creating the latest addition in his international Skip sculpture series, Skip 14 is a testament of the time, tenacity and wonder behind Harman's creative process. Set in Cologne, Germany, Harman embarks on the consecutive 35-hour construction of Skip 14 over the course of a single weekend. Taking art to the streets, he warms the hearts of the random audience of passers-by with his charismatic personality and dedication to an artwork that will simply exist for a matter of hours - until the workmen return the skip to its original function come Monday morning. In purely observational style, the film is with the artist every step of the way, capturing an intimate, time-based portrait of Harman's charming irreverence and fascinating artistic process. This journey is one made to amaze and inspire, and offers insight into the eccentric Scottish artist and his ground- breaking works. "I was a bit skint, needed a place to exhibit, needed materials and an audience. This is everything in one. I empty it all out, break it all down, clean it up and put it all back in again. The piece of work was the skip sculpture, but it became so much more. I'd say the work became about the gathering of people." - Artist Kevin Harman explaining the origin of the Skip sculpture series.
