Sixes & Sevens: April 2010

VOICE/UNDER is an investigation into the way artists use the tension between sound and image as a tool. The featured work uses the inherent contract and fusion between the two registers within its structure, sometimes to create disparity and at other times to collude in order to raise questions of perception, language and understanding. The resultant questions might lead us into obscurity, or intrigue us as to the narrative possibilities decided by the viewer’s individual interpretation of what they see and hear.

Featured works (more TBA):

John Smith – Gargantuan – ‘A wonderfully witty example of how to conduct pillow talk with a small amphibian.' - Elaine Paterson, Time Out.

Dan Walwin – Silencer – takes the recognisable form of an interrogation, and fragments it over two different locations and turns it inwards by the use of a single actor playing dual roles.

Andrew Brand and Alison Ballard – Wires and Bows - An experimental animation from a moving train comparing the movements of telegraph wires with the sounds of violins

Erica Scourti – Statement of the Art - Press releases taken from a wide range of contemporary art exhibitions are collaged together and translated into French, German and Spanish and back into English using internet translation software.

Emily Wilczek - Walk (in progress) – As the camera's motor kicks in, we hear its loud whirr, and the screen goes from black to the images being shot, by one of the walkers.

Gareth Hudson – Future Proof – ‘Telegnosis like a time-telescope - a rare gift, which allows one to look through the veil of the present into the future’

Jordan Baseman – More Than Religion

Curated by Ellie Russell, Dan Green and Amy Fisher.
