ANNE SCOTT WILSON is involved in a three-part exploration presented by Deakin University and ACMI. Transductions reflects the ways in which philosophy and futurism take part within contemporary art and curation. Transduction #18 is a pop-up exhibition located at the Tech_Bar at ACMI and brings together 18 artists, including a video work by ANNE SCOTT WILSON. This feature reflects the notions of energy within a space and the experience of combining artists, artworks or concepts simultaneously. Anne Scott Wilson describes her video work:

'Taking heavily pixelated material from youtube of the iconic Grand pas de Deux from the Nutcracker Suite, I have created a pastiche that is faithful to choreography within its musical structure.  Footage is from 13 different interpretations performed between the 1950's and 2000's.  The idea considers how the web, now an archive of material not previously accessible, constitutes a new way of seeing or reading antiquated art forms.'

Transductions is showing at ACMI Studio 1, Tech_Bar @ Beer Deluxe.

MIND SHADOWS

3 February - 7 March 2015

Pat Brassington, Mind Game, 2013, pigment print, 60 x 46 cm

Curated by Laura Lantieri

Bringing together seven artists from the eminent ARC ONE stable, Mind Shadows is a curated exhibition exploring themes of human consciousness. From our waking hours, to the enigma of dreams, and the deep sleep that houses our subconscious, Mind Shadows examines the ways in which these states can inform and infiltrate creative enquiry. Whether through process, subject or aesthetic, the works presented engage with consciousness through notions of memory, automatism, reality and hyperreality, and conveying the internal and the unknown.

Featuring new and key works by Pat Brassington, Justine Khamara, Janet Laurence, Robert Owen, Julie Rrap, Anne Scott Wilson and John Young, the exhibition spans photo media, sculpture, painting and video, and draws upon the somatic and the cognitive in proposing the body as the seat of consciousness as well as the mind.

For Mind Shadows, these artists inhabit liminal spaces; their works often alluding to the periphery – or shadows – of awareness and open to fluid interpretation and perceptual doubt.

SAM SHMITH

Sam Shmith, Untitled (In Spates 1), 2011, pigment print on archival rag, 75 x 125 cm.

ANNE SCOTT WILSON has been selected as a finalist for the 2014 Bowness Photography Prize. Established in 2006 to promote excellence in photography, the Bowness Photography Prize is one of the country's most open prizes for photography. In the past, finalists have included established and emerging photographers, art and commercial photographers, all that are competing for $25,000 first prize and $1,000 People's Choice Award.

Anne Scott Wilson’s stunning photograph, titled Coathanger has been entered into the prize and the winner will be announced on Thursday 4th of September 2014. Anne Scott Wilson describes her photographic approach in the following statement:

“In the attempt to understand how the camera works I built a camera obscura and discovered that photography exists without us. That nature produces pinholes of light that form images came as a revelation. This spawned a new way of exploring the body in motion through photography.  Guided by instinctual body memory of light and space I impose rules on how and when I shoot.

In this series I ‘performed’ states of motion by combining elements together - a pas de trois of gravity, water and body mass caught in a flash, the action commonly known as ‘bombing’.  I continue to ‘choreograph’ the moment in Photoshop just like dance notation as if it could be read and repeated.”

ANNE SCOTT WILSON 

Fly Rhythm, ARC ONE Gallery, Melbourne, 23 July - 24 August, 2013.

Anne Scott Wilson’s Fly Rhythm explores the profound analogue experience of ‘drawing with light’ in a digital world. Utilising lens-less, pin-hole photography, Scott Wilson intuitively and physically recorded movement as still images, as direct representations of light over time. In Fly Rhythm, the impact of space and time upon the body - the spatiality of movement - presents a uniquely subjective visualisation of the body as a conduit of visual experience.

- Annabel Holt, July 2013 

Scott Wilson studied painting as a mature-age student following a career in dance. Her practice is informed by theatre, cinema and live performance and is realised across multiple creative disciplines including photography, video, painting, sound installation and performance.

ANNE SCOTT-WILSON has been included in a traveling exhibition, Selectively Revealed, to tour Asia in the coming months.

This is a multi-media exhibition curated by Sarah Bond and Clare Needham in conjunction with Asia link, University of Melbourne and Experimenta.  It will be showing in Korea, Indonesia, Taiwan and Thailand between October 2011 and July 2012.

Selectively Revealed explores the notion of what is public and what is private in our contemporary times.  While it was once universally accepted that what was internal was private, and what was external was public, in our current age of reality TV, Twitter and Facebook, confessional YouTube videos and the ubiquitous CCTV coverage of the city streets, this delineation is no longer adequate.  The line between public and private is increasingly blurred and we are constantly forced to question what is appropriate (and indeed interesting) for public consumption, and what is best kept to ourselves.

Employing a variety of screen-based practices and contemporary video-making techniques, the artists in Selectively Revealed choose precisely what - or what not - to reveal about themselves and those around them.
