NARC. Mini-Doc – Combining The Arts: Spaces For All
IMDB 0 | Nov , 2022
Lizzie Lovejoy’s mini-documentary explores the world of non-traditional performance spaces, especially in the Tees Valley and celebrating the fantastic work they do. Lizzie spoke to Bobby Benjamin, artist and curator of Pineapple Black in Middlesbrough, about the exciting range of work the gallery has housed over the past couple of years during festivals, exhibitions and events. And from Redcar Palace Art Gallery, director James Beighton and curator Beth Smith of Tees Valley Arts discuss how the venue is used to create works as well as share them, and why accessibility has become one of their main focuses. People connect to performance in different ways than visual art, but both can be incredibly powerful and influential. Using local creative spaces to pull both together highlights how fantastic our local cultural community really is. This is an Art Mouse film for NARC. TV, written and directed by Lizzie Lovejoy.The Falcons

IMDB 0 | Jun , 2023
The link between body and mind is portrayed in the context of materialism; the importance of physical objects to express personal identity in the tangible world. Four categories are shown in the full installation that supported this film; everyday objects, clothing, makeup, and creations in the form of visual art. These form the pillars of self-expression, through which the soul can be made visible. This experimental film shows the union of the mind built from complex identity structures and memories, with the material extensions that hold this enormous value, becoming important to an individual's personal existence. Inspirations from several film and photo works, notably "All About Lily Chou-Chou" (Iwai), "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" (Sharman) and Ana Mendieta are incorporated throughout the video and accompanying photo installation.Dust Devils
