Hannah Mooney: But Never Mind
Opening Reception Thursday 19 June, 6 – 8pm • Curated by Anne Mullee
But Never Mind is the most recent iteration of Mooney’s continuing experimentation of split screen video, an approach that she describes as allowing ‘instantaneous burps’ of unrelated imagery to collide and spark new modes dialogue. Clichéd imagery recalls sentimental 1970s nature posters or stock video photography, offering brief yet unexpectedly emotive pairs of dual images, insistantly prodding the viewing to wonder at their meaning.
