ARTIST STATEMENT:
I am fascinated by the psychological, spiritual and social diversity of everyday life. I’m captivated by the theme of celebration as people come together through family, ritual, communal rites of passage, social bonding and journeying.
Much of my current work is achieved through participant observation. I work in photography, film and installation participatory projects with a wide range of venues and collaborators. I am fascinated by how we build our sense of personal history from the experiences we collect and store and investigate ways in which a sense of community can be strengthened through art making. My responses take various forms including performative lectures and presentations.
I am passionate about inspiring participants to open themselves up to becoming a cohesive group through the potentiality of unexpected interactions and adventures, with a strong emphasis on intergenerational work.
Have you ever considered adding more videos to your blog posts to keep the readers more entertained? I mean I just read through the entire article of yours and it was quite good but since I’m more of a visual learner,I found that to be more helpful well let me know how it turns out
Thanks Stefani,
I only just saw your comment…
That’s a really good idea! I have often been told this as video is a very good way to be direct and bring across the humour and lovely people-ness i like to get across in my stories. I will definately consider that as im hoping to start a blog called Friends Family and Flowers soon
and that could have video clips on – really bring the processes im interested in to life!
For now if you want to see some of my video docu’s you can see a few here http://www.megmosley.blip.tv/ they are hopefully fun to watch.
Thanks for taking the time to read my piece,
Meg
