About
A filmic invocation of her pantheon of supernatural entities take us on an otherworldly trip where the artist becomes the painted, the sculpted, the fetish, the summoned, the conjured and the seer. Seduced by all things transcendental, this is for Sweeney the realm of schizophrenic psychic harlequins, ethereal MDMA Medusa goddesses, orchid-clown hybrids and demonic balls.
The film’s contribute to a wider body of work supported by Arts Council England, that considers anthropological ‘dolls’ as supernatural intermediaries and the cultural practices, values and beliefs that empower them.
Kelly Sweeney is a London-based artist who studied at Nottingham Trent and Chelsea School of Art. A multidisciplinary artist, her practice encompasses painting, sculpture, drawing and film. Sweeney exhibits regularly and has work in private collections in Europe, Asia, America, Canada and the UK.
With a personal introduction by the artist, the screening will be followed by a talk and opportunity for Q&A from the audience.
