We all then went to look at the Haris Epaminonda exhibition, currently at Site gallery. It was a surreal experience consisting of four different videos being played in one room with very subtle music in the background. It certainly wasn’t very self-explanatory and I wouldn’t say that I could relate the artists thoughts behind this work but it was definitely an experience which in itself highlights how her work did have an effect on me.
Later on Richard Bolam showed us some of his work, which is based around filming and also deals with the passing of time like Epaminonda’s work, but in a different way. Richard emphasizsed how the music in the background of a film can affect the end product as it can change the whole meaning of the media. After being inspired we had our own attempt of filming (regardless of the awful weather). After warming up when we got back we also had a go at doing a studio portrait shoot, which was extremely entertaining.
