All posts filed under: siouxzi mernagh: pictures | ‘exit’, 2010

ʻExitʼ is a photographic/video installation piece shot in Brewarrina, remote NSW, Australia.

The story follows the classic narrative of a road trip and aesthetically celebrates the Australian landscape, however reaches beyond the narrative to explore tensions of time, space and the explorations of the sexual tension between of two female hitchhikers.

ʻExitʼ consists of three interweaving cyclical stories that were shot as a series of stills and HD video. The imagery is exhibited as continuous looping projections, supplemented by looped motion video footage of various highway landscapes and an intimate underwater scene.

Currently exhibited by Broken Dimanche Press brokendimanche.eu/​kakofonie3
