Brass Art

Changeling (2024)



Photo credit: Brass Art
single channel video loops, colour, silent.

Developed from the Apparition photographic series these videos continue research into pre-cinematic spectacle, using coloured cellophane as a way of seeing the everyday anew and references the cellophane theatre set designs of Modernist, but distinctly proto-feminist, American theatre designer, painter and poet, Florine Stettheimer. The artists have disguised themselves to create grotesque portrait silhouettes based on illusionistic shadow devices.
