exhibition in the University of Brighton Grand Parade Gallery Nov-Dec 2013
Amongst the surrealist objects and films I was drawn to the miniature stage sets/vitrines, connecting them with the illuminated boxes I want to make.
What is it about them? A whole world conveyed in a tiny space, the connection with children's story books and so my own childhood, fear of the unconscious, the attention to detail, the juxtaposition of realistic and fantastical. . . He says something interesting about the latter:
from his Decalogue
The fantastical needs the realistic to be convincing. So depending on which way I go with mine, that may be useful to bear in mind.
