DEBORAH KELLY’S THE GODS OF TINY THINGS DEBUTS AT ACMI
ON 1 JULY
ARTWORK SYNOPSIS
The Gods of Tiny Things is an experimental collaborative animation considering
life in peril. At collage camp in beautiful Yuin Country in Southern New South
Wales, we dreamt and brought into being personifications of our fears, of failures
and wounds, of impossible appetites roaring with hunger.
Over an intense week of study, research, play and practice, we conjured these
figures and landscapes as heralds of grief and warning, using obsolete images cut
from old magazines and abandoned encyclopaedias. The Gods of Tiny Things
thinks poetically and urgently about the current array of threats to life; the shift to
the right across the political world, the tolls of colonialism, climate catastrophe,
human profligacy; and conversely the dynamic, kaleidoscopic pleasures and
desires of life itself, at all scales, in all its teeming, prancing, hectic, clamouring
fertility. We are dancing at the end of time.
