Truth immaterial

21 – 24 April

Open: 13:00-17:00 daily

Performance lecture, Let the light in… on Saturday 23rd April 18:00-19:00.

A performance lecture presented at the opening of These Thoughts Form Between Us, NN Contemporary Art Project Space, Northampton, UK. The work explored the ideas and theories presented within Sirius Returns by the enigmatic author KH. The text combines a range of spiritual, pseudo-scientific and esoteric propositions into a system of belief often difficult to decode, yet distinctly subjective and ultimately uplifting in its utopian doctrine of tolerance and empathy. The reading of the book initiated a change in approach to my practice from performance and video works overtly tragi-comic and theatrical, to a method rooted more directly in the nature of learning and the potential in abstract systems of knowledge. Using a combination of vector diagrams, text and found imagery, the work attempted to feedback my research and offer further insight into the meanings hidden within the sculptural works also on show.
