7th July – 29th July 2011

In ‘twilight ever after’, Jonathan Cameron uses the Twilight Saga as an example of popular culture that evokes desires within many throughout society, and alludes to certain boundaries or boarders that are unattainable to the “average” person. Philosopher Jacques Lacan uses the word ‘Other’ as a term for describing different facets of our world that are unattainable to most. This concept is present in the Twilight Saga in numerous ways, but seen most vividly through its inclusion of the vampire character. The work within the exhibition both seeks to overcome the boundaries that separate the ‘Other’ within ‘Twilight’, by creating depictions of the ‘Other’ from ordinary or banal imagery, as well as by manipulating imagery that already depicts the ‘Other’ in an attempt to bring it to a more accessible level.
