Stills/Inspiration

These are some stills from my installation Murder Disco!, created around the time that pixelisation and atomisation of imagery really captured my interest. The reason I post them now is that I still refer back to them regularly and consider them a piece of work which is a fair articulation of my themes and concerns. I'm also really interested in the idea of the film still as an entirely different beast from the photograph, and various the implications of this.

La Petite Mort - a project in progress

This drawing is part of La Petite Mort, a new series of ink on paper drawings that I'm working on at the moment. This one is nearly done and there are more to follow, but as you can imagine they're pretty time consuming, hence no posts of my own work for a while. But I'll keep dotting and keep posting...

This nude combines my interest in drawing the figure with the fact I like to grid things up and break them down. That it's divided into different units also makes the act of reading the drawing more like a graphic novel or a storyboard, more sequential. I like the idea that deconstructing or destroying an image, especially that of a person, can actually force the viewer to spend more time looking at it, one step back to get two steps forward...

From the vaults: Tell Us More

A one minute film from back in 2006 called Tell Us More. Made as footage of the plane crashing into the Penatgon in 2001 was released to the media, this is where my longstanding pixel fixation began.

Tell Us More was selected to screen as part of no.w.here's Archetypes Screening at Transit Space, E1, in May 2006. Although back then I didn't give things titles.

Installation: Murder Disco!

I made this pixel piece as an installation covering one wall of a dark room, the rest is self-explanatory...

Astriloquy video for China Gorilla Intergalactic

Some wall candy I made for China Gorilla Intergalactic: a 5 min silent video derived from clips of the film Alien (don't sue me 20th Century Fox), dealing with extra-terrestrial contact. Not for the epileptic amongst us.

Video showing at China Gorilla Intergalactic

I'm going to be exhibiting a video and making some virals for China Gorilla Intergalactic this Friday (see Facebook), more to follow...
