Daisy Dickinson
Daisy Dickinson is a London-based director/visual artist whose work involves experimental short film, music video, projected installation and live visual performance. She is one half of audio/visual collaboration Matekoi with Maxim Barron and Adrena Adrena with drummer E-da Kazuhisa (Boredoms).
She also works on live AV shows with other artists such as Samuel Kerridge, Yuko Araki, Seefeel, Steve Mason, Speakers Corner Quartet, Grimm Grimm, Toy, Nuha Ruby Ra, Snapped Ankles and short films with artists such as Marta Salogni and Simon Fisher Turner. Dickinson’s visuals have been described as ‘magmatic and sulphurous, cosmological and transcendental, drawing attention to the wonder of the earth and our sensuality on it’.
Her shorts films have been screened at festivals such as The BFI London Film Festival, London Short Film Festival, Raindance Film Festival, Edinburgh Film Festival, Encounters Short Film Festival, among others and her installation work has shown at venues such as The ICA, The Barbican, Cafe Oto, Shepherd's Bush Empire, Fold, Village Underground, The Roundhouse and Royal Festival Hall in London, CERN in Geneva and festivals such as Berlin Atonal, Glastonbury, Supernormal, Houghton, End of the road and Les Nuits des Bassins, as well as audio visual tours across the UK, Europe, Japan and Taiwan.
Sonic Arts Week will be presenting the premiere of WETRIP a video-audio-installation by Daisy in collaboration with composer Simon Fisher Turner.
WETRIP
Time suspended as shapes and forms escape. Lights fades with erosion. Perception of altered visions. Secret sonic vapour trails envelop and shred horizons. Melting shadows outline forms. Stars black out light. Corrupted as time folds away.
Movement. Sound. Lies.
Solitude.
Space and time respond.
Touched.
Sudden impulses exploring the sonic and visual world of Daisy Dickinson and Simon Fisher Turner
