These pieces stand in stark and interesting contrast to the
magic realist whimsy of Memmott’s collabs with Sandy Florian
which we showed here a few months back.
I’d be interested to know whether these new works are completely,
as it were, synthesised or whether, lurking at the back,
there’s some real world footage.
The first piece puts me in mind quite forcibly of a journey by train
(as if the abstract shapes and images had been piled upon some
manipulated footage thereof..)
Dunno.
Good though! –striking. Talan?
