About Jacquelene's Artwork Installation:
Jacquelene Drinkall's contribution to the Forged by Fire Festival is nothing short of spectacular. She will showcase her 'firenado-like' telecommunications wire weavings, oil paintings, and various works that intricately reference fire. The episode will provide a sneak peek into two new videos that promise a visual feast for the audience.
One of the new videos features footage from the movie Firestarter (1984), capturing an electro-encephalogram monitored display of pyrokinetic firepower in a silvery-grey warehouse building similar to the festival's venue. The other video adapts an online montage of supernatural firepowers in cinema, enhanced with transparent layered still images of fire god-esse-s.
Jacquelene's diverse artistic expressions also include a video performance of deep listening sound with broken musical instruments, a photoprint and soft sculpture installation made from aluminum fire hazard suits, and engaging workshops on weaving with telecommunications wire.
