Artist Statement:
 
Arcuri’s ongoing Remix series is a continuation of the A Shot in the Dark series, re-worked as the title suggests. The iridescent colours, which mimic chemical stains, are created by layering two negatives of the same subject. Each negative is slightly different as the flowers move or change after being ignited by flame. Here you are able to see the difference or change between the ritualistic-like floral burns that the artist puts her dying subjects through. The images become almost otherworldly, looking infected, which speaks to Arcuri’s interest in undesirable fauna and the use of light.​
