"Screen
culture has long been a stimulus for Mina Young's work. This exhibition, 'Strange
News From Another Star ', incorporates particular references to science fiction and film noir and the non-linear construction of French New Wave cinema. Young's heroines inhabit fantastic dreamscapes, signifying the surreal nature of dream and trance states and the phenomena of déjà vu. Peculiar objects linger as remnants from another realm, scale and light digitally amplified; collapsing the distinction between sensorial memory and the distorted perceptions of recall and (collective)
cultural consciousness."
