Mary Pearson: Fomo, Mofo! Tickets

A kaleidoscopic meditation passing through the films Blow-Up and Mullholland Drive and the songs of Robert Wyatt, Kraftwerk and John Lennon; a modern myth, cautionary tale, and visual feast.

FoMO mofos is not an overt ‘issue-based’ piece. It brings to life a powerful image world, that resulted by questioning the effects of screen time on human consciousness. With social media hyper-connectivity comes constant vigilance: we are watching each other whilst being watched. FoMO, mofos! questions the deeper consequences of that continuous self exposure on the fragile psyche of human animals.

We see a woman in a cinematic labyrinth turned digital. All eyes gaze upon her, their insatiable desire is to invade and capture her privacy. She is rootless, an outcast, fighting invisible demons of history.

How did we get here? How do we get down from here?
