Andrew John Milne – Bio Synopsis
Apparatus is the construction of mechanism as ruin. It is a collection of decaying monuments that realize a historical vision of future utopias, dragging them back toward obsolescence, futility and critique. The exhibition commemorates a future where vision is total and simultaneous; where Cinema has eclipsed experience.
Andrew John Milne is a self-taught Media, Film and Performance artist living and working in Winnipeg Manitoba. He has a background in mechanical, electrical and computer design, contemporary dance, photography and film. Over the past 5 years Andrew has created a series of Post-Cinematic Mechanisms which interrogate the technologies of seeing. In this work he approaches cutting edge media with obsolesced technologies.
As well as maintaining an active personal practice Andrew is the founder of the Museum of New Ideas, a mobile media art exhibition and studio space, and is a founding member of Bent Light a post-cinema film collective.
