Walking As Art (Japan Solo - Luke Power video work)

This video shows the solo public art work created in Japan’s Kii Mountains by Luke Power, January 2017. The work was a compilation of photos from locals, that celebrate their lives – as school participants and within the community. The work was played to the community at a gathering in the school over two nights. It was well received by the locals and reminded them of wonderful times they had in the once active school. The video has been blurred to protect the identity of the children.

We also see here the group efforts of the 2017 UNSW class. A public art work which took 4 days to make, spanning two floors over the windows of the school. A response to walking 60km along the World Heritage Kumano Kodo trail.

Visiting Venice & Lyon biennale was an eye opening experience of today’s art, social and political issues. The coloured characters visiting the exhibitions with me add humour, paradox and recontextualise meanings within the works. This collection of photos playfully examines curation and todays art practices.
