M. SIMON LEVIN & LAURIE LONG
M. Simon Levin has been creating site-specific projects that explore
relational
aesthetics using a variety of custom designed tools for the past 15 years.
These
projects investigate the often-blurred boundaries between the private and
the
public resulting in poetic interventions into space and place. As an
independent
filmmaker Laurie Long has spent the past decade working in a broad variety
of
roles in productions ranging from guerilla style performance poetry videos
and
independent documentaries, to extreme sports television. Her work has been
broadcast extensively in Canada, screened theatrically and exhibited
internationally.
Working as artists-in-residence at the International Art Space
(Kellerberrin,
Australia), Long & Levin recently collaborated on the Centre for SALT
Expression
- a site-specific multimedia production exploring relational aesthetics in a
remote Australian farming community stricken with land salinity. The Centre
for
S.A.L.T Expression is an exploration of an Australian wheatbelt community's
relationship to their over farmed and hyper-salinated land. This fictional
organization intervenes into a small country town (pop. 800) to reframe
people's
daily lives as mark-making creative acts. Presented within the context of
land
care issues this project brought real social agency to the shire of
Kelleberrin,
developing and delivering educational curriculum for school kids and
supporting
a project which included social services for the aboriginal community. In
addition, focus groups were facilitated to re-vision the town's future
identity.
