John O’Connell: Big Pink | Friday 4 February – Saturday 2 April 2011 | The Dock

Supernatural. Bizarre. Imaginative. Pink.

All of the above are words that have been used to describe this film by John O’Connell in which ordinary and unfamiliar objects, together with a gorgeous piano soundtrack, combine to create a convincing, dream-like world.
