Projected art is an accessible art form. It's a way to express and capture each individual's viewpoint and perspective on life.
PROJECT:
allows us to celebrate projection art. Artists can inspire the
community and people who don't usually create art can submit their view
of their Urban Perspective. Submissions can be photographs, animations,
non -narrative video art or documentary. We have no sound this year.
But the collection is shaping up to reveal the diversity in us all.
WE ASKED OUR ARTISTS ABOUT THEIR PERSPECTIVE.
Q:How does projection art enhance your experience of Urban Perspectives?
Angela Barnett, " Projection is unlike any other form of visual art. Throwing moving
light pixels onto an ordinary surface transforms it into something
extrodinary; beautiful, shocking, unique. It is not only an artform
within itself but encompasses the surrounding environment and objects
within it to become a part of the art."
Ian de Gruchy," By integrating research, technology and production and combining the best of analogue technologies (photography, projectors) with the power of digital technologies (imaging, keystone correction, slide production) it is possible to produce complex engaging works with projection.
Programming possibilities means projection can operate cue to cue for performance or for art installations as continuous operation, semi-permanent events. Projection can operate as an intervention within the city as an ephemeral public art crossing the boundaries of art, architecture and performance."
