THE BLOSSOM
2020. Video; Audio;
8.26 minutes
8.26 minutes
A dialogue between people of vastly different times discussing the meaning of a home. The contradiction of future-proof value and the value of use for actual living. Speculates on a future where money is impermanent and so uses a usufructuary system, meaning ownership rights are determined by need.
The grid is a reflection of arbitrary divisions within our systems of understanding economies, and societies: a system that obscures the actual home that is lived within. Rosaline Krauss writes about Grids being part of the Modernist movement and its turn against narrative.
This artwork uses narrative in the form of a (science) fictional radio play set against a gridding effect created through digital manipulation using the coding window of Reaper DAWs video effects algorythms. The conversation plays between spoken word and written commentaries mixing up technical jargon and ordinary language. The video footage obscured by the computerised gridded manipulation is a small enclosed South London Garden where the artist was staying during the early period of Covid 19.
This was part of a series of investigations using economic crisis and writings of David Harvey as places to investigate using dialogical artworks influenced by the concept of scholasticism in medieval philosophy.
Shown at Pi Artworks Extrospection Curated by David Thorp; 302Redirect South Kiosk/Montez Press.
