Looking from a distance
10th September – 15th October 2011
Looking from a distance features two recent moving image works, Without Mind (2011) and Changeling (2010). Both pieces focus on movement in a contemplation of beauty, time, memory and transformation. These two video works are connected by a tension between the sense of intimacy and detachment in the handling of the subject, which in each case is a solo performer. In each work the movement has been digitally altered through editing processes, foregrounding our ways of looking and the weaving of possible psychological narratives.
Looking from a distance was developed with support from Arts Council England, Allenheads Contemporary Arts, Dance City, Globe Gallery and the Medical Research Council.
