The 2009 University of Otago Frances Hodgkins Fellow, Eddie Clemens, has unveiled a futuristic exhibition at the Hocken Gallery.

"Delusional Architecture" features five installations that investigate the increasing use of special effects in entertainment and society's insatiable desire for escapism.

The title of the exhibition was taken from the 1991 movie Terminator 2: Judgment Day and the works use effects such as glowing broom bristles, hidden miniature fans and modulating LED and RGB coloured-light sequences to transform mundane objects into animated, whimsical sculptures.

"Delusional Architecture" is on at the Hocken Gallery until April 24.
