JASON HAGGERTY
Flowing and pulsing underfoot, this thought-provoking video installation invites audiences to peer downwards to question the rift between the natural and the artificial. Embedded into the ground in the Nerang St Precinct, Alchemic Erosion explores the role human intervention played in the formation of Gold Coast waterways. Inspired by mystical notions of alchemy and the process of turning one thing into another, this immersive piece imagines an alternate waterway where human intervention has evolved new organic forms and wildlife, entwining the fantastic and dreamlike qualities of gold with the foreshadowing of entropy.
This work is a predominantly visual work. It may have minimal dialogue and some background music or sounds, or may be fully subtitled, so Deaf and hard of hearing audiences can have close to the full experience of the work.
