Programme 2006
Volcano
21.04.06 – 21.05.06
Lynne MarshMarsh’s Volcano and Lem’s Solaris explore landscape as material, metaphor, site and subject. Volcano, like Solaris presents a sensual encounter with a dislocated, shifting, virtual landscape. Marsh’s animation explores the attributes of surface, perspective and line of sight as codes for subjectivity in the space of the moving image.
ALWAYS ON MY MIND
18.03.06–16.04.06
Susan MorrisMorris’s work finds echoes in 20th century fiction’s exploration of the construction of the self. The invention of the lens had brought about the discovery of moments or places within which one could, as Proust affirms, become “witness… a spectator… of one's own absence”.
Twilight in the Wilderness
11.02.06 –12.03.06
Dan HaysTwilight in the Wilderness is the latest manifestation of what Dan Hays has collectively called the Colorado Impressions project, begun in 2000. This large body of work draws mainly on landscape imagery from a website created by 'another' Dan Hays living in Colorado. Hays found this other Dan Hays by chance when, out of curiosity, he entered his name into a search engine. At the top of the list was a Dan Hays who lives in the Rocky Mountains in the USA.
