‘Unsound House’ is an abstract exploration of the language of the mediocre and ‘middle ground’. The three-screen installation explores the semiotics present in the architecture and design of a show home. The piece is an attempt to destabilise the identity which the show home represents. The installation weaves meaning from beguiling imagery which attempt to raise the mundane into a grandiose and more baroque narrative. Sound has always informed my approach to editing film. In ‘Unsound House’ I have taken this to an extreme. The Soundtrack is able to guide an audience through the work, giving them something to hold onto and position themselves within, or it can be a schism creating disorientating and unsettling experience.
