The storyteller



Year Created:2012
Medium:Video projection on Venetian mask
Image Dimensions:15cm x 13cm x 36cm
  
Description:The artwork consists of a single video projection with sound, onto a Venetian mask. The artwork titles itself after Jim Henson's 1988 TV series of the same name and attempts to reenact the fantastical nature of fairytales and folklore. The Venetian mask is used as the vehicle of the tale, bearing the weight of the projection and the focal point of the viewer. The video illustrates a psychedelia of shapes and colors with the intention to hypnotize the viewer and submerge him/ her into the space. Occasionally, the antagonist appears in the pool of colors, drawing the viewer into the never-ending tale.
