Stephen Earl Rogers is an artist working mainly as a painter. He is held in permanent collections in the UK and United States and has exhibited many times at the National Portrait Gallery. Julian Lloyd Butler is a film-maker, television producer and writer. His work has appeared on The BBC, Channel 4 and ITV and at the Edinburgh, London and Cannes film festivals.
Collaboratively, Eagle & Feather have been putting their own interpretation on the term KIPPLE for a number of years. Through regular visits to charity shops, car boot sales, public libraries and jumble sales they have amassed a collection of absurdly peripheral and esoteric videotapes, selected for their distinct peculiarity. By various means – editing, manipulating, combining and reducing – they make videos imbued with new qualities - humour, drama, pathos and poetry.
