Syd Farrington, In Our Sleep, 2023, 16mm to HD file, colour, sound
A full moon in winter. A questioning of truth behind the folklore surrounding a full moons presence on personal histories, thoughts and behaviours. In Our Sleep takes effected dreams and subconscious to reflect upon the pasts place in our present and its relation to location. Notions of romanticism are accentuated when present within the English landscape, leading to a rumination on past relationships and their ties to place, mirroring our innate binding to nature and the natural world.
