'A sense of perspective'

Today we shot footage at the press opening of Tate Liverpools latest exhibition. 'A Sense of Perspective' has been curated by Young Tate in partnership with the Youth Art Interchange II. The Project brings together three major European Galleries, Tate Britain; the Museum of Contemporary Art Kiasma (Helsinki); and the Centre Pompidou.  The exhibition features installations, sculpture and Photography from European artists and has been curated by Young people from Liverpool and refelects the sense of 'Betweenness' and the contrasts in generations of young people from all three participating nations.

We spent a good three hours shooting footage for the documentary that has been comissioned by the gallery and interviewed some of the Young Tate Curators aswells as the event organiser.
Although the exhibition is small, its is packed with unique and interesting pieces by Wolgang Tillmans, Chen Zhen, Sarah Lucas and one which really caught my eye by Olafur Eliasson. (Below)

Fear; Hope; Desire

This blog has been set up to Document my progress in my F.M.P (final major project)which I will be starting in the next couple of days. I will post my progress regularly and include illustrations of my progress in the form of video work, Audio, storyboards etc.


What I've been up to so far.....

Over the past six weeks I have been working on a project which has been planned and produced by myself and Oscar Douthwaite.  The project has been divided into three seperate pieces which last for around 2 minutes each.  Each seperate piece explores the three themes and throughout this process I have researched various aspects of each theme and even looked extensivley into Phsycadelia in film and creating video work using this research.  On the whole, this project has proved to be a success and has allowed me to experiment with as many different techniques as I wanted and also has given me inspiration and clarity for my next project.
