Bruce Mowson ‘Pink Balls’ 2004, Installation view: West Space, Bourke Street Mall, 2004. Photography by Christian Capurro.

Pink Balls deals with phenomenology and experience, seeking to create a tension between what is perceived to be real and what is objectively real. I'm interested in how we reconcile an experience of conflicting realities – what we know versus what the senses identify.

Pink Balls works with the ephemeral nature of sound and video – existing in the eternal zone of the present – but rendered as definable, near static objects that can be observed and contained within that fleeting present.

The work is designed for and made in the gallery – the dimensions and feeling of the space being an equal element to sound and light in the experience of the work.
