A Multimedia Exploration of the Story of Vulcan, Blending Film, Poetry, Sound, Music, Art and Science
Mike Stubbs is interested in how we shape our everyday worlds and how we seek meaning and significance in the fabric of daily life and communication.
Subjects that he explores in his work includes machines, work, innovation, ecology, geology, class and identity. He spends time observing and enjoy the ambiguity and mystery, often capturing surreal scenarios and ambience.
Lucidity is fleeting as is life, with humanity seeming more precarious than ever with a climate emergency in our face; He is an increasingly conflicted petrol head.
His practice brings together experiences as an artist working in the early days of video art, filmmaking, performance and TV, with curating, through a process of interdisciplinary research and residency, often in collaboration with other artists and communities, and at times on a large stage.
