JULIET DARLING

Juliet Darling presents three digital video art works; Town Hall, Bondi, and Mona Lisa. This trilogy was filmed outside the Town Hall in Sydney, beside the waters of the Atlantic and in The Louvre in front of the Mona Lisa. They are about an adventure of the spirit – waiting. She discovers this subject in three different ways. Juliet Darling is a film maker, artist and writer.
