HERE is an original story, set in Cumbria in the last years of World War Two which draws upon real events in the life of German artist, Kurt Schwitters - famous for his Merz collages and art installations - who, after exiling himself from Nazi Germany, spent his final years living and working on Cylinder Farm in Ambleside, Cumbria.
