  • ARTIST STATEMENT
    Jessica Vincenza Long: While Away, My Home Lost Colour and Sound Home is returning. It is familiarity, safety and belonging. While away, ideas and memories of home are kept alive through images of colour and sound. This film explores the disconnect between the
    artist’s nostalgic images of her home in Australia and the jarring disconnect of returning to a place she no longer recognised due to the catastrophic damage of the fires in 2019 and 2020. Shot on
    16mm film, this work experiments with in-camera shutter-rates and film developing techniques to emulate notions of memory, colour, sound, loss and silence.
