Still Life
Animation Canada 2011 No dialogue 0:02:52
Cézanne’s Still Life with Skull is animated using sounds and video culled from YouTube in an attempt to translate the traditional painting genre into a contemporary image, albeit through motion.
L’oeuvre de Cézanne Nature morte au crâne est animée avec des sons et vidéos extraits de YouTube dans le but de traduire, avec le mouvement, ce genre de la peinture traditionnelle en une représentation contemporaine.
Works primarily with video. After receiving a BA in Art History from the University of Pittsburgh, Hawkins now resides in Montreal, QC where she completed an MFA at Concordia University. Her most recent works employ genres and examples from art history and current internet culture as a framework through which to sift, collect, and collage online-sourced and original images. She has exhibited her work as a part of the UCLA New Wight Biennial in Los Angeles, as well as at the AC institute in New York, the Struts Gallery & Faucet Media Arts Center in Sackville, New Brunswick, and at InterAccess in Toronto, ON.
