‘Meteor’

Using elements of feature films, fragments of fairy tales and science fiction motifs, ‘Meteor’ is an invitation to travel with a child's room into space.
‘Lua’
Miguel Mariño | 2014 | 11 minutes

A point of mutation in which darkness is replaced by light. ‘Lua’ is an abstract animation film directly handmade on 16mm unexposed film stock. A handmade voyage to the moon.
‘Place for Landing’
Shambhavi Kaul | 2010 | 6 minutes

A household landscape of mirrors. A child and its reflection are inscribed in a shadowy lunar patchwork. The camera switches its optical pursuit: the child disappears and a bird emerges. The surveying mirror implodes or explodes into space.
‘Sea of Vapors’
Sylvia Schedelbauer 2014 | 15 minutes
Courtesy of Light Cone, www.lightcone.org
A cascade of images cut frame by frame flow into an allegory of the lunar cycle.
'Despite the teeming flow of images juxtaposed and superimposed in between – eye to mountainscape, face to fingernails, flowers to lips, rocks to sea, forest to child – we are struck less by associative or metaphorical links than by the sense that, with her simple gesture, the woman engages the phenomenal world, drinking in nothing less than the universe conjured throughout.' Tony Pipolo, ‘Artforum’
Free. All Welcome.
The exhibition ‘Peter Hennessey: Making it real’ continues until 12 July. Find out more www.artmuseum.uq.edu.au
This project has been assisted by the Australian Government through the Australia Council, its arts funding and advisory body
