Exhibition at DLI museum Durham City
Interested to view having heard him speak to student's at Sunderland.
Exhibiton has an interesting take on " a preoccupation with movement and stillness in lanscape" The exhibits comprised a video and related paintings.
Video shot in mountain landscape and cuts between trees, moving water, fog and wider landscape shots.
The mist is effective in cloaking and then revealing landscape elements. The sound track is just as important with passages of stillness contrasted with the sound of moving water /wind etc.
Liked the idea of related painings but felt that most failed to provide sufficient resonance with the video and were not, in themselves, sufficiently good to stand alone.
On balance felt the work showed great sensitivity to landscape and atmosphere/mood.
