Don’t Stand So

 

Nicci Haynes lives in Canberra, Australia. She uses experimental film to bring together the elements of a varied art practice that includes performance, printmaking, drawing and mad-scientist constructions. For Nicci the term ‘film’ rarely refers to film as such, but its format: an assembled sequence of images. Her quirky animations are constructed from drawings, objects, photographs and video footage.
