Hunting for Hockney
Director: Alice Dunseath
Year: 2013
To escape from the realities of bereavement, two friends travel across Yorkshire to look for David Hockney. Grief toys with their senses and heightens their need for adventure. The style references the work of Hockney.
You Could Sunbathe In This Storm
Director: Alice Dunseath
Year: 2014
Space, forms, colours and sounds symbolise a recognisable world. Do we shape as much as we are shaped? Do new beginnings put an end to familiar patterns?
Loss.y
Director: Lisa Jamhoury
Year: 2026
Situated at the physical-virtual threshold, loss·y memorializes corporeal passing and digital rebirth. The work intertwines animated sculptural “dances” with interactive spatial audio, inviting audiences to navigate invisible thresholds as they move. loss·y presents three split-seconds of a motion-captured female-female pas de deux: each moment is suspended in a vignette that overlaps projection and 3D prints encapsulating the dance in sculpture, with spoken-word poetry and spatial sound design. The installation’s audioscapes blend cold technical facts, accounts of digital dysmorphia and surveillance, and computer-generated sampling, creating an elegy to the vital body that is at once human and digital. On its surface a critique of today’s techno-society, loss·y collusively takes up digital reduction and surveillance as creative media, revealing reverence for the uncanny wonder that pulls us forward into our new, hybridized world.
