DON’T STAND SO

Nicci Haynes is a visual artist based in Australia.

In the artist’s words: “As in ‘There and back’, my previous Long Minute video, 'Don’t stand so’ is informed by restricted access to resources and made from video footage printouts I had in my studio. I don’t exactly remember what my intentions were when the video was recorded, but it has configured itself into a commentary on COVID-19.”
