Current Work
Work in progress "The Masque of Blackness"
With thanks to The Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea who have kindly sponsored this project.
"The Masque of Blackness" is a hand drawn animation with related drawings to be premiered and exhibited
at The Gallery in Redchurch Street London E2, March 2013.
Inspired by Ben Johnson's 1605 masque and Joseph Conrad's "Heart of Darkness"
Both works use an African river symbolically and as a vehicle for an inner journey. A journey into self.
The work explores the relationship between still images, moving images and music, with drawings in charcoal on paper and
onto silk. The original score will be composed by Esben Tjalve, sound and editing will be by Matthew Thomas.
