Helen Mearns - Mies Afraid of Red

Thursday 11th October - Saturday 13th October12pm - 6pm Artists' Reception: Thursday 11th October 6:30pm This exhibition of cinematic imagery puts into practice Freud's concept of deferred action ('Nachtraglichkeit'), taken from his book the uncanny. Taking one Image as a trigger, the artist begins to explore the affect of cinema on our memory and subconscious. The artist recreates a remembered scene that has reoccurred in dreams, which is a response to the viewing of Ola Kolehmainen's 'Who Is Afraid Of Red' (2002). www.hermanlense.co.uk
