NEWS FROM NOWHERELOCKDOWN (or An Epoch of Unrest) ***hardcover edition***

£38.00

A cross – disciplinary collaboration involving performance, photography, fashion, set design and AI, revisits William Morris utopian romance ‘News from Nowhere’ in the context of London’s lockdown.

Photographer paula roush worked with stylist Hugo Santos and fashion designer Robert George Sanders to explore the codes of still-life painting through body art and performance for the camera. Scenes staged in the decadent three-storey building where msdm studio is based, were filtered through the latest artificial intelligence features, currently being added to photographic software. The work was created during London’s first lockdown and the play with both flesh and virtual masquerade, offers a deconstructive critique of the ubiquitous introduction of state police surveillance tech as part of creatives’ toolkit, at a time of growing street protest.
