FRONTIER

Part experimental travel vlog, part performative sculptural video installation, FRONTIER is an experimental short film that attempts to interweave and traverse both the personal anecdotal lived experience and the public, political nature of queerness. 


In August 2019 (Europe’s summer), Matto Lucas travelled through 14 different countries, in the back of an Audi convertible. Part retro road trip, part travel log, FRONTIER is an experimental video artwork about a queer body existing in various new geographies, documenting an organic experience; a journey, and discovering the multitude of landscapes while telling multiple intersecting narratives and exploring the transient spaces one occupies in transit.

Exhibited at Louis Joel Arts & Community Centre as part of Midsumma Festival 2020
