Theo Ellison uses video, photography, sound and text to tease out our vulnerability to Romanticised narratives, exploring how they shape our relationships with nature, technology and nostalgia. Within that framework, these narratives are both indulged and undercut to test the boundaries between pathos and humour, observation and voyeurism, and nature and artifice.
