About the exhibition
Presented in partnership with The Dean Gallery, National Galleries of Scotland
Joshua Mosley's digital film of animated clay figures presents a fictional encounter between two of history's most important philosophical and theological thinkers, Jean-Jacques Rousseau and Blaise Pascal. Rousseau and Pascal meet whilst on a journey through woodland as they contemplate creation, question the nature of truth and pose central philosophical questions. Is God divined or secularly evolved? Is man inherently good, contradicting the accepted doctrine of original sin?
