Haywood Slucutt
Haywood Slucutt is a recent graduate of graphic design at the University of the West of England, where he specialised in film, animation and installation art. His practice explores the combination of projected film and sculpture within immersive installations, forming optical illusions and augmented realities. Animating our existing environment by projecting film onto physical objects; making the inanimate come to life.
During his graduate residency at the Pervasive media studio Haywood will be working towards creating computer controlled mechanical kinetic sculptures that are synchronised with mapping animation. He has been developing the use of stepper motors, interactive hardware and max/msp programming to harness the potential of computer controlled motion. Giving the projected digital image a new form of tangible life, and creating new opportunities for sequencing between animated and real movement.
Haywood's work will take on an ongoing theme to investigate our image saturated media landscape, raising questions about the proliferation of bombarding digital images. Haywood hopes to challenge some of these issues by creating installations that make visual/virtual metaphors of our technological and social situations.
