ESSAY, Mirrored to the Core

By James Paddock 2021
“Embarking on this journey to realise artist James Paddock’s vision, it felt right that collaboration and cross media interdisciplinarity amongst art forms…come to the fore. Boundary crossing is, in all senses, at the helm of the work.” Key collaborator Rosalind Parker has created an essay that offers a closer look at Mirrored to the Core, my project that fuses opera with video installation. I appreciate intelligent observations about the arts projects I'm involved in. Rosalind is a wonderful mind and has a natural gift for writing.
