Windows - Metro Arts

West End - Meanjin

Windows explores the nature of vision and how the ways that we see the world affects our experience of time and place.

This new media installation is centred around two video works that tell stories about the ways that we encounter and understand the world through the collection of information and the construction of knowledge.

Paine looks to consider the apparatus of the eye and the surface of the mirror as metaphoric considerations of how vision acts as an interface between our consciousness and the world around us.

Accompanied by Tara Heffernan’s catalogue essay The Soulless Eye: Technologies and mythologies of visuality in the work of Katie Paine
