Chris Macinnes is interested in ‘people’ or in the singular ‘person’. Recently he has begun working with animals in an allegorical manner (whereas people have the propensity to act to camera, animals do not). Animals have the capacity to reveal aspects of human nature that people often choose not to divulge. In Interim he will show his film installation Breath. The film reflects on our awareness of our own mortality through the fragility of a bird breathing. This reflection is accentuated by the ephemeral nature of the films means of projection.
