Steve Carr: On moving images in the Art World (workshop)

Join one of New Zealand’s leading contemporary artists for an in-depth discussion and workshop exploring approaches to making performative art with a moving image. Working with a table of everyday objects, participants will consider conceptual modelling, shifts in materialisation, still photography and performance. You will work collaboratively towards making a short creative outcome. We are delighted that Steve will be at MPRG to deliver his workshop in person.

Booking are essential as numbers will be limited. Please bring a mobile phone for filming. Afternoon tea will be supplied.

MPRG exhibiting artist, Steve Carr, is Senior Lecture in Film and Sculpture at the University of Canterbury in Christchurch, New Zealand. He has a fascination for magical moments of material transformation. Steve’s preoccupation with controlled experiments, processes and outcomes are manifested primarily through his practice of sculpture, moving image, and photography.

Carr currently lives and works in Christchurch, New Zealand and is represented in New Zealand by Michael Lett, Auckland and in Australia by STATION, Melbourne/Sydney. Carr’s work has been collected and presented extensively in public and private galleries nationally and internationally.
