Following a successful application to KARST’s Artist Residency Programme, I am spending a week developing a new video piece in an individual studio space at KARST.
KARST is a non-profit contemporary art venue in Plymouth, which comprises a public gallery and artists’ studios. The gallery is dedicated to showcasing current and experimental visual art, through an international exhibition programme
The residency is enabling me to have time and space to test a new performance to camera. This experimental project forms part of a body of work exploring the movement of objects to create compositions devised through ludic co-ordinates.
Objects for this new work were acquired from a charity shop earlier in the year and comprise of:
1 x over sized, red, ornamental brandy glass
1 x frilly blue glass platter
1 x clear, flat, glass dish
a quintet of Ikea ʻSue Pryceʼ blue lidded plastic food containers
I’m planning to use this testing space to devise and capture a performance to camera – the objects being arranged and re-arranged for the lens. The charity shop remains significant referenced in the context of archive and supplier of stuff.
