Light detritus
Artist: Sarah Moore, 2nd year MA Fine Art student
This exhibition brings together a series of darkroom experiments using still and moving images. Working with organic darkroom chemistry and processes of shared scale and transparency, the work considers the afterlife of image. The exhibition takes its impetus from a line by Jazz Money: “ the end of the world was marked with beautiful light//we should have known.”
The works include photographs, 35mm, and Super 8mm film processed in everyday and foraged organic liquids. Total exposure is treated as both a way of knowing and a form of harm. Craters, seeds, and marks on trees appear as traces within these exposes, forming poetic synchronicities across image and material.
Sarah Moore is a visual artist raised in the Central Australian desert and is currently studying for a Master of Fine Arts in Reykjavík. Her work often around a central absence, mystery, or emotional thread. Her composition towards storytelling is explained through darkroom experimentation, filmmaking, and radio. She previously completed a BA (Hons) in Anthropology at the University of Melbourne and a Diploma in Art Psychotherapy at IKON Institute.
