We have now settled on a date for the performance at the gallery, it will be on May 3rd. It quite a small space, so even if only 7 people show up it will feel busy, more and it will be crowded.
For the first time I will be putting a video piece of mine on sale as a limited edition DVD. This is a new thing for me and has caused me to think again about the role of video in my practice. I have typically used video to act as documentation of the live performance but I see that this relationship has been changing for a little while. Even though the live event remains the centre of my practice, these videos function as video works independent of the performance. I can see myself working further in this way, even making some works that exist as videos without ever being performances for a live spectator. Indeed, I have some plans brewing for just that over the Summer. If I do make that sort of step in the work then it would be good if I could sell a few more videos!
Got my Vimeo account this morning and started uploading…
