ACC59/2009

The body as vessel, as instrument, as receiver and transmitter, reflexively paralleled with the recording and projecting mechanics of film, photography and video, is a consistent feature of Seer's work. Many of her still images are characterised by two themes: the artist herself as both viewing subject/ recording instrument and viewed object, and the comparability between photography and vampirism.
