For over a decade Tina Gonsalves
has been using the fluid and malleable medium
of video to explore complex emotional landscapes.
Rich, painterly video abstractions evoke intimate
associations with personal space, supernatural
forces, and intense experiences of transformation
in times of trauma. In 2004/2005 her work was
exhibited/screened at the Banff Centre for the
Arts, Siggraph, USA; ISEA 2004; Artsway, UK; IAMAS,
Japan; The Australian Centre For Photography,
Sydney; Barbican, UK; Pompidou Centre, France;
DEAF 2004, ICA, London and was a featured artist
representing the Australian Centre for Moving
Image at the Melbourne Art Fair. She has taken
part in many Artist in Residence programs including
The Banff New Media Institute in Canada, the Centre
for Contemporary Art in Prague, Asialink artist
in residence at the New Media faculty Chulalongkorn
University, Thailand, (Pro) duction residency
at Artsway and most recently the Advanced Institute
of Media Arts and Sciences residency in Japan
and the Banff Centre. Works by Gonsalves have
been screened at many prestigious international
and national festivals and events, and her music
videos for labels BMG, EMI, and Festival Mushroom
Records have been frequently televised worldwide.
