Artist Statement:
Developed specifically for FLYING ARTistry and projected on the facade of the Judith Wright Building, Night Body Blooms is a moving digital work, visible to the public between 6 – 11 pm.
Viewed on a loop, this large-scale projection collages watercolour paintings, photographs, neon line work, and a repeated self-portrait from the artist’s previous work, Night Body.
Taking swatches from the natural world, the vivid, futuristic colourscape incorporates, the magenta of the hibiscus, the glow of the moon, and the neon green of the Mycena chlorophos mushroom, only visible at night. Night Body Blooms continues Harding’s ongoing celebration of nature and her fascination for the expansive frontiers of the universe.
