]]> Comment on Introducing the first of our Backliteer reviews | The Weird and Wonderful | Rachel Fenwick by Sara http://backlit.org.uk/the-weird-and-wonderful/#comment-258 Sara Thu, 15 Nov 2012 14:59:47 +0000 http://backlit.org.uk/?p=2597#comment-258 Interesting comments and reviews. As the exhibiting Photographer maybe I should've printed the photos even BIGGER or poss in their own surreal room? Maybe a solo exhibition might be due? But still, a learning curve and a great privilege to be involved in the first event. On a personal level, the whole night blew my mind on so many levels. The atmosphere, music, vibe and creativity was great. On entering the event I was met by a wolf-like character with a toy and sparkler who'd just emerged from the 'Carpet Whorehouse'.. immediately, this put a smirk on my face and made me laugh at the play on words. Sadly I only managed to catch the last 15 minutes of Trans/human feat YOTP, these guys' performance was fantastic, for me, it felt as though they were challenging modern day pressures on so many levels yet creating alongside a stunning, powerful almost monastic soundscape. I really must see these guys again! I couldn't get in to see Juliann O'Malley due to the performance being at full capacity, nevertheless, the post performance remarks from from friends were interesting and thought provoking nevertheless. Rebecca Cunnigham's 'One' experiment is very interesting and for this reason I decided to participate offering 5 strands of my hair, I look forward to what will be the outcome. From start to finish myself and friends had a wonderful time, it was great seeing so many different art forms in this sort of space, alongside a party and relaxed atmosphere. To conclude, it confirmed to me that when creative and visionary people collectively work together in a supportive and positive environment, alongside willing and interested participants then something very beautiful and magical can happen. Thanks to all who made it happen. Interesting comments and reviews. As the exhibiting Photographer maybe I should’ve printed the photos even BIGGER or poss in their own surreal room?
