Grand Slam Frolic

Lorna Mills’ playful creations cross GIF culture with kinetic art and dynamic collaging. Through wide-ranging source material, the artist's works reverberate with frenetic energy. Her sampled images meander about as fragmented, glitchy loops that appear disembodied across flat landscapes.

Mills’ collages give the impression of looking over a never-ending machine whose odd-ball constituents rhythmically pulsate. Before she began mining sites such as Google+, Reddit and Porn Fail to create digital media the artist experimented with Super 8 film and traditional painting. Mills was recently featured in Phaidon’s Vitamin C+ which highlights the top artists currently working in collage today and is widely recognised as one of Canada’s foremost new media artists.
