Poetry in Patterns is an exhibition that explores unusual forms of moving-image using a combination of systems and chance methods. Active experimentation with materials leads to unintentional outcomes that resist explicit meanings and invite interpretation.
The two installations in the Objectifs Lower Galleries, a video work and a looped 16mm projection work, take inspiration from patterns found in nature, in our daily lives and within the filmmaking process itself. In addition to the gallery installations there will be an evening of film projection performances, and a 16mm film workshop.
