Time-Based Media, refers to art that is dependent on technology and has a durational dimension, for example video, film, audio or digital.
The Mercer has only recently developed the facilities to show this type of exhibition.
Founder and Director of Aesthetica, Cherie Federico has curated a bold selection of work by five international artists, all of whom have received Aesthetica awards at previous stages of their prestigious careers.
The five films explore themes such as colonial legacies, nation building, diaspora, the ethics of representation, and the impact of war. They reflect the human experience, with moments of joy and euphoria, as well as pain and loss.
The five artists are:
- Rhea Storr,
- Michelle Williams Gamaker,
- Jasmina Cibic,
- Manjinder Virk,
- Juliana Kasumu
The five films will be played on 75 minute loop and the audience members can sit for its entirety, of for as many of the short films as desired.
