Mark Lewis’ first solo show in London opens at BFI Southbank’s new gallery space on 14 September and will include his 2005 LAFVA-funded work Rear Projection (Molly Parker).

The exhibition includes three recent films shot on 35mm and transferred to High Definition. Other works on show will include Downtown: Tilt, Zoom, Pan (2005) and Isosceles (2007) a work recently shot in Smithfield, London and premiering at BFI Southbank.

Rear Projection (Molly Parker) investigates the idea of portraiture in film in relation to landscape images. Shot in Lewis' lush, pictorial style, the footage of a desolate Canadian landscape is combined with a filmed 'portrait' of the actress Molly Parker by using the traditional method of rear projection, a technique commonly used in films up to the 70s to shoot live action against a backdrop of seemingly moving images.

The exhibition is free and runs from 14 September until 11 November.
