On Film With Feeling

Exhibiting Fall of 2024

The name ‘On Film With Feeling’ comes from, or rather is, of sorts, an ode to Nick Cave and the motion picture that documents the recording of his album Skeleton Tree. The film is not one that I have seen but I do very much like Nick Cave and I do very much like the name.

A mixed-media photographic and print project that involves the Hasselblad Xpan and superimposed illustrations of Haida Supernaturals. The project aims to illustrate the fluidity between two worlds; the land and waterscapes of Haida Gwaii captured on film, and that of the Haida supernatural beings overlayed.

This project will result in five finished prints, framed and signed by Alyson Bell, the illustrator of the graphic piece, and myself, the photographer and director of the project. The framed prints will be gifted to local galleries and institutions.
