Indepth Arts News: "Tina Gonsalves: Somewhere in Between - Studies in Translocation" 2003-08-28 until 2004-10-01 Artsway Hampshire, , UK United Kingdom
These installations explore shifting realities, the nature of intimacy, and an engagement with time and distances. The footage is used as metaphors for emotional spaces, as each of the installations and seven single channel video works investigate the parameters of time and space and their physical and emotional effect on people. This creates an atmosphere that is an intensified, illusory version of reality.
In the main gallery, a three channel video installation explores shifts of reality. Using the real world as a point of departure we are presented with visions of horizons taken during a six week trans-atlantic sail from the Cape Verdes to the Caribbean. These visions are then broken down and whittled away, reconfigured to suggest another reality. They are manipulated such that the details become indistinct, leaving them barely discernable as seascapes. These revisions reflect our own tenuous hold on memory and the impact our emotional state can have on the past and the present.

ArtSway presents an exhibition of new work by Australian based artist Tina Gonsalves. Somewhere in Between: Studies in Translocation is a video exploration of seascapes and the engagement with the transient and evanescent nature of travel. The work is formed by the extensive journeys undertaken by the artist over the last few years captured on video.
