Summary Fenella Kernebone looks at the work of sculpture and video artist Dinh Q Le, one of the most acclaimed Vietnamese artists practising today. Much of his art explores collective memories - especially as they relate to his personal experiences as a refugee fleeing Vietnam in the late 1970s. We meet Locust Jones, whose graphic illustrations often depict a timeline or diary of his concerns for contemporary international politics and issues. His thought provoking images on paper might seem familiar to us as seen through the media, although reinterpreted in his own unique way. Henry Wagons tries his hand at mobile phone photography and explores the explosion in the art form.We look the lo-fi video art of Anastasia Klose, who has been described as exploring the "aesthetic of the pathetic'', a reference to the embarrassing - even humiliating - situations captured in her intimate video diaries. And Henry teams up with singer Jess Cornelius from Teeth And Tongue for a duet
