A film of myth, mask, and folklore inspired by the Carboniferous, imbued with folksong, and forged by the blacksmith, WAYS OF THE PLANT interweaves art and nature through hand-processed 16mm film and multidisciplinary artist practice that explores humanity's deep connection to ancient woods and the journey of coal. Hart of the Wood 'Ways of the Plant', is a bold multidisciplinary art and film project, led by artist and filmmaker Benjamin Wigley, which celebrates humanity's ingrained relationship with the woods that spans deep time; carbon, the Carboniferous and the journey of coal. Working collaboratively with the Hart of the Wood artist collective, Ben responded to the Lapworth’s extensive Carboniferous fossil collection to create a new multi-modal film and art exhibition at the Lapworth Museum of Geology; on display throughout 2023

Luke Stoltman leaves behind a stable career in the oil and gas industry to guide his younger brother Tom through the brutal world of Strongman. Tom is a genetic phenomenon, built for the sport, but his greatest battle has always been internal, navigating life as an autistic man in a high-pressure, hyper-masculine arena. When their mother and primary carer, Sheila Stoltman, passes away, Luke steps into the role she left behind, becoming mentor, protector and father figure, bound by a promise to always look after Tom. As Tom rises rapidly through the ranks, silencing critics and defying expectations, Luke quietly wrestles with his own doubts, sacrifices and fading ambitions. Tom pushes toward fulfilling the promise he made to his mother, “Mum, I will win World’s Strongest Man”, while Luke searches for redemption of his own. It comes when he shocks the sport by winning Europe’s Strongest Man, proving he still belongs among the elite. The journey leads to the ultimate showdown: two brothers, head-to-head, at the pinnacle of Strongman. At its heart, this is not just a story about strength, but about family, sacrifice, and the unbreakable bond between brothers.
