Continuous Cycle
Using live video feedback and projection, the installation explores repetition, perception, and the endless cycles of human behaviour and suffering.
Ian Phillips-McLaren’s immersive art installations transform rooms into psychological spaces. Combining hand-crafted sculpture, multi-channel sound, and projected performance, these large-scale video sculptures explore identity, archetypes, and the fractured nature of the self.
His works have been exhibited internationally, including at the Venice Experimental Video and Performing Art Festival (2022), and invite viewers to navigate shifting landscapes of masks, shadows, and truths — part sculpture, part performance, part self-portrait.
