Edition of 3 + 1 AP
Part of the Glow Video Series which uses television content, in this case a hard core porn movie, as a simple source material for reflected light installations.
The light source for this work was created by simply recording the cast light of a gang bang scene in a hard core porn film as it bathed the artist's apartment wall while viewing. No image or sound was captured only the reflected light. The porn genre tends to be fairly routine and pragmatic in terms of editing, therefore the resulting glow is steady and rhythmic with few camera changes but with quickening pulses of colour...mainly pinks, oranges and red hues. |

Glow House #4 - 2009
House, 35-40 CRT televisions all tuned to the same channel
Off site project for The Prairie Art Gallery, Grand Prairie AB
Curated by Micah Lexier
One House & 35-40 television sets distributed throughout and all tuned to the same channel.
The small flicker of light emanating from each TV is then turned into a ‘pulse’ of light throughout the entire house. As the scenes change, from whatever television program is airing at the moment, the house flashes and pulses as all televisions are in sync with one another. Gives the eerie impressions that the entire house has been gutted to create one vast illuminated space. During commercials it is as if fireworks are going off inside… |
