ROHESIA HAMILTON METCALFE

New Media Artist: Experimental Film, Video Art, Web-based Work

Rohesia Hamilton Metcalfe is an artist whose work in film, video and internet-based projects explores the pleasures of narrative uncertainty.

Dogma-resistant, her work asks us to look again at things we might have thought we knew already—inviting the viewer to stay with and even enjoy the experience of incompleteness and imperfection. Neither the frame nor any story are privileged as providers of closure. Their function, rather, is to unwind presumptions and open up spaces for alternate and unfixed points of view. [more]
