Twinned with: This is an archive of a project
which was originally created for Variablemedia and shown online
from 22/6/2004-1/8/04. It was also shown as part of curated show "unfiction" at Rocket Art Gallery Newcastle Australia 16/9/2004-4/10/04
as part of electrofringe 2004. unfiction
catalogue essay
. Unfiction was curated by Rebecca Cannon and and Ashley Wahmond.
Project description: It began
with a clickable sequence of photographic images taken by
the artist along a walking route around the periphery of an Irish
coastal
town;
the small town she grew up in.
Over 40 days Images were regularly replaced with similar photographs
(images which copy the original compositions), taken whilst making
journeys through other locations. The
images were created using a matchbox camera obscura attached to
the lens of a digital video camera. This process of analogue filtering
digital, diffuses image detail, creating temporal vistas, which
could be attributed to a multitude of places.
Twinned with was first shown as a temporary project for the
London based organisation variablemedia.org.Variablemedia
co-ordinates a series of artists' web projects made specifically
for their www.variablemedia.org site. Artists occupy the site's
space for a period of between one and three months. This empty space
is available for them to change, update and add to during their
project's run. Variablemedia.org presents
the artists' work in an unmediated form at variablemedia.org and
all explanatory material and archives are held at the www.variablemedia.info
site.
