Having previously explored the literary cityscapes of Poe and Baudelaire through painting and animated films, Katherine Tulloh will show a new film and vibrant watercolours drawing on alchemical illustrations and the dream journals of Emanuel Swedenborg. The film was made in an extended reverie of improvisatory creation – open to chance effects, she constructs and mutates sets and projections, photographing them and animating the resulting images into a fluid, hallucinatory stream, loosely soundtracked with excerpts from Swedenborg’s writings and bursts of electro-acoustic sound. The paintings, on paper in vivid watercolour inks, are meticulous and luminous, and, together with the film, refuse meaning and celebrate the enigmatic resonance of the poetic sign.
