French artist Antoine Aguilar’s practice is informed by the light, colour, space and perception of the Impressionists in particular Monet, Seurat and Boyd. Aguilar works with the ‘micro-details’ of the landscape which are revealed in his video installations. By revealing these micro details, Aguilar aims to expose the ‘natural phenomena through the pixel and supporting apparatus such as the plasma, the TV, LED, LCD, video projector and other material forms, paper confetti and powered pigments, to question existing landscape and new forms of radiance, colour and metaphoric light’.

During his residency, Aguilar worked in the natural environment of the Shoalhaven River and its surrounding landscape to create a personal installation to document his experience in the ‘landscape that influenced Boyd’s remarkable Shoalhaven river series’.
