A New Kind of Ray

Inspired by The International Museum of Surgical Science collection and the current political climate, this experimental 2 - channel video took its cue from a sign describing ‘A New Kind of Ray’, within the Museum’s X - ray exhibits . Documentation of found objects, simple animation and manipulation of light and colour set an oddly playful tone of an abstract journe y . The videos are combine d with a monologue reminiscent of absurdist theatre – and every bit as symbolically potent. The text gives clues to a metaphysical riddle of sorts, and ultimately asks the viewer to look inside themselves for answers.
