Homegrown Stories has been nurturing creative collaborations for many years. This year we’re interested in creating a more hands-on collaborative project among our loyal and talented collaborators. We’ve invited sound and image artists who have contributed great work in the past to take part in this year’s Homegrown Stories theme – The Serendipity Project.
Twelve individuals were formed into six collaborative pairs. The pair of artists selected a title for their video piece and a designated length. They then worked separately with one collaborator creating a soundtrack inspired by the title and the other creating a silent image track. At a designated time, these two separate tracks were combined.
Using collage, organic image and sound, and a variety of structural schemes, this first set of collaborative videos reveals the unplanned magic of Serendipity.
