Fleeting Flashing of Fervour


Fleeting Flashing of Fervour

Derek Sargent

Opening 25.06.14 6-9pm
Artist Talks 28.06.14 2-4m

Fleeting Flash of Fervour is an act of queering popular culture and creating an all encompassing adolescent experience through the medium of film and television. It explores the lack of representation of queer adolescents in popular culture, and the counter-reading that can be produced to view self-reflective imagery. Focusing on how popular culture reinforces standard gender and sexual roles, this film installation subverts heteronormative structures by privileging queer imagery over the normative and by reinterpreting images to reflect the queer adolescent experience.
