Am doing anyhting to avoid starting this new . . . . ?
Update: It's done, now it's up to youtube to upload possibly the most boring video on there yet !
Whoops, didn't check if they're not too long . . . . .
The purpose of these films is to create both a drawing and a film to be exhibited side by side, to create a sense of something existing in two states and at two different times. The film is moving and made in the studio, at a time before exhibition. The drawing itself would be present at the same time and place as the viewer in the gallery.
Again I want to look at the subjective motive of the artist experienced during the making, and the objective existence of the work in the gallery and away from the studio, with it's processes of making hidden. [This would be more clear perhaps if I had instead designed an object with purpose, or something more deceptively realist in it's appearrance - something made to look like something else. The work can fail to have any wider value to anyone else, beyond the artist exercise of making.
The drawing itself is inspired by the realisation that the one thing the 'serious' design of the gallery cannot allow is the pushing back into it's walls. The centre is darker as it 'recedes.'
I'm amused that the radio relays talk of short films, social media, mature students, welfare reform, etc etc . . .
