Sarah Pucill’s films and photographs explore a sense of self, which is transformative and fluid. At the core of her practice is a concern with mortality and the materiality of the filmmaking process. The majority of her films take place within the confinements of domestic space, where the grounded reality of the house itself becomes a portal to a complex and multi layered psychical realm. In her explorations of the animate and inanimate, her work probes a journey between mirror and surface, in which questions of representation are negotiated via the feminine, the queer or the dead.
Here is a photograph taken at the PoetryFilm event in Cardiff in 2008. The event was part of a programme called “Shock of the New”. Thanks very much to Cardiff Academi for the photograph and for the invitation.
