- Strange to think of photos as 'stills' which of-course they inherently are!
- Though this new projection piece combines a series of sequences, some fast mini animations, other slower; movement is definitely a key element. Originally the idea was to slow time down - very apt for Karamea in one sense - yet as well as having time to really be in the moment & conect with it; this is a busy place with lots of different lives being lead and stories unfolding - and things to be fixed etc!
- So, hopefully I've tapped into that also. Essentially, it's a subjective view of my time here - it's hit me that's it quite a challenge to arrive in a place 5th of Jan & put up aa exhibition of new, fully realized work on the 21st of February!
- Such is one of the (many) benefits of an Artist's Residency.
- Show goes up tomorrow, world premier of Projected Photo Animation Piece (need catchier description than that!) at the exhibition launch on Monday 22nd.
- Get to hear Karamea Sound Machine & Friend's musical response tomorrow . . .
- The feet belong to Panda & are very expressive whilst he performs - there's a link to his website - if you ever get a chance to catch one of his performances - I highly recommend going!
