Filmic Memorials

1 September - 9 October 2005
Studio 1

In Filmic Memorials, Melbourne-based artist Shaun Wilson reconfigures found 8mm and 16mm footage from his family's home movie collection to 're-write' his own personal history.Cut and pasted, this visual diary of moving memories allows the artist to construct his own identity while exploring ways in which we record our personal histories as a mode of articulating the past. Yet while Filmic Memorials is an intensely personal work, Wilson also prompts his audience to pause and re-examine their own visual memory. Supported by RMIT
