Arlo Mountford, The Copse Parts 2 and 3, 2015

Installed at the Center for Contemporary Photography, Collingwood. The Copse Parts 2 and 3 used CCP's historical archive in combination with the western art history canon. The notion of the copse was in response to Heidegger's concept of 'lichtung' or clearing, Heidegger's metaphor for the head space necessary to have an original idea.

Two channel digital animation, surround sound, mixed media installation

Duration 10 minutes

The Copse - Part 1 was supported by the Australia Council for the Arts.
