Deadlock & Nova
- Black Coffee
- <figure class=" sqs-block-image-figure intrinsic " > Deadlock: Built off existing cast glass, photography, found objects and photogram work, Deadlock is digitally combined and transformed into bold abstract images, This work is part of an ongoing multimedia project exploring the fragility of the mind when exposed to traumatic experiences. Deadlock embodies the emotions of hate, despair grief and helplessness, how through pain we inflict pain, blindly forming cycles of abuse and transforming into the monsters that hurt us. The key, acquired from an infamous and abandoned mental institute in Goulburn Australia, represents the hidden strength inside to unlock and transform our painful experiences into healing and growth. Nova: A multimedia work meshing electronic music, sound design and audio manipulation. Combined with a multi-faceted visually psychedelic projection and static visual art. "Inspired by travels with friends. It started as an idea to articulate this mantra we have: to follow our passions. We had been discussing how all-consuming work, social and cultural norms set us up with feelings of self-doubt, neurosis, and for many, deep feelings of depression and anxiety." Using sampled audio of these conversations I formed a narrative, a thread of individual experience and perspective that articulates the innate urge inside us to create and explore within our world." Bio: Serpent Dream is the moniker of multimedia artist James Costin. His work consists of electro-acoustic music and introspective soundscapes. His music is accompanied by visual art, this medium takes the same path as the music in which elements are borrowed and transformed into new forms that embody his personal experience in life. "Music and art are direct connections to the more abstract part of my being, a bridge to that raw humanness that lies behind all concept and logic" www.serpentdream.com - @serpent.dream
