I met Andy as he walked past me armed with a camcorder. I was intrigued to watch his tape. He said i could. The tape presented a seventy year old artist who walked the streets of Edinburgh, Scotland, Capturing his surroundings. For whom and why? I decided Andy and his tape would make a good subject for a documentary. My intention was to share Andy's tape so I could experience life through the eyes of another. I wanted to discuss the nature of why we both film? However Andy had his own agenda for making this film. Pigeon is a sixteen minute unconventional documentary that weaves in and out of two directors visions questioning what is an artist?
