Artists in Residence: Heather Phillipson

Heather works primarily with the moving image. A trained musician with a parallel practice in poetry, Phillipson uses conjunctions and disjunctions of image, sound, language and performance to undermine prescribed associations. Referencing cinema, literature and music, she transposes compositional and literary structures into visual devices to create tensions between meaning and non-meaning, seriousness and absurdity.

Yn gweithio'n bennaf gyda'r ddelwedd symudol mae Phillipson, sy'n gerddores hyfforddiedig gyda diddordeb hefyd mewn barddoniaeth, yn defnyddio delweddau, sain, iaith a pherfformiad i danseilio cysylltiadau penodol. Gan gyfeirio at sinema, llenyddiaeth a cherddoriaeth mae'n trawsosod strwythurau cyfansoddol a llenyddol i mewn i ddyfeisiau gweledol er mwyn creu tensiynau rhwng ystyr a diffyg ystyr, difrifwch a gwiriondeb.
