CHROMAPHILIA DREAMS
Curated by Adele Wilkes and Anita Spooner Bunjil Place, Melbourne
“Colours are not possessions; they are the intimate revelations of an energy field… They are light waves with mathematically precise lengths, and they are deep, resonant mysteries with boundless subjectivity.” – Ellen Meloy
“The world is not coloured. Colour is an experience, a sensory collision of interior and exterior worlds. These six films communicate beyond language, they dwell in the domain of affect. They gesture towards otherworldly landscapes and space-time configurations, celestial forms, sacred geometry and psychedelic optics. They conjure hypnotic realms through their amorphous use of colour, abstraction, and non-objective forms. Meditating on the cyclical rhythms of nature, exciting primordial sensations and synaesthesia. They flower and illuminate dormant places and spaces. To watch is to be radiant.”
