Expanded Architecture, was an architectural film night held at Performance Space Carriageworks as part of the Sydney Architecture Film Festival on Saturday Nov 6th 2010. The evening formed part of University of Sydney student Sarah Breen Lovett’s PHD thesis, an exploration into the relationship between architecture and film. Sarah’s supervisor Dr Lee Stickells was also instrumental in curating the film exhibition, sourcing films relating to architecture from international sources, including the US, UK and Europe. The films had one common theme; their relationship to architecture. Standout films included ‘Surface a Film From Underneath’ by Varathit Uthaisri (2009), which graphically portrayed the city streetscape from underneath and the storylines of its users. The visual appearance and jagged pace gave the impression of shadow puppets, further distorting the imagery.
