Abstract

Intuition, play and experimentation, rather than direct messaging and narrative, are driving forces in my art making process, and have influenced both the collection of material, and the construction methods that lead to the final pieces presented in this thesis show. The content of my work is about embodied sensations, and I want that to lead to someplace that feels both introspective and emotionally connected, even if a narrative thread is difficult to pinpoint or identify. The exhibition title, Other Vision, references some motivations in choosing to work this way, as well as hinting at ways of encountering the works, both as producer and as audience. My practice is rooted in electronic media, with a focus on video, sound, responsive screen-based work, and most recently, works on paper. The videos, installations and prints included in Other Vision present outcomes of explorations in all of these areas. They showcase experimentation with form, interests in working with various tools for real-time manipulations, and explorations of bringing these works into immersive real-space environments.
