Overview
Don’t confuse this for Magic Mike. Or Eight Mile. Or even Magic Mountain. Do confuse it for the strip of car dealerships in Moorooka that infuse passerbyer’s with exhaust fume nausea, industrial claustrophobia or even inspiration. Audrey Lam embraced the latter, wrote Magic Miles, and in turn created an extraordinary photographic, cinematic and artistic experience.
Magic Miles as a stand lone film is a manifestation of brilliance in humility. Milking substance from simplicity, it explores and interprets the fictional relationship of artists Athena Thebus and Xiao Deng as they drive through the Magic Mile, and what it means to be young and confronted with the static of Subaru laden scenery.
Now, A-CH Gallery hosts Magic Miles the exhibition, transforming the space into one that explores the same themes and thresholds of the film through photography and the film itself. It reverses the dynamic of movement to provide an interpretation of The Mile in just as powerful means, but through a medium of different strength.
Motorhead of not, this exhibition is sure to impress and instil a shiver or two in just about any Brisbane local.
