The Ethereal Wireless of the Dreaming Mind
This experimental video work by Morwenna Kearsley considers House for an Art Lover as a unique cinematic character; considering its potential voice and its relationship to the idea of hauntology as presented by Mark Fisher.
The video investigates the house as a site of an imagined space (by Charles Rennie Mackintosh and Margaret MacDonald) and its anachronistic transformation into solid form.
The additional graphic work by Martin Elden showcases a geometric type-style inspired by the work of Mackintosh and MacDonald and also hints at the potential for hidden messages concealed within the symbolism of the couple's design work.
