Converge/Diverge



Converge,
coreography,
fragmentation,
match,
mirror,
replecate,
landscape,
explorer,
miniture world,
double exposed images of venice 2004,
deconstruction of a sequence of movement,
collage,
rehash,
accumulate,
collection of debries natural or manmade,
patterns of accumulation produced by movement,
material deposited by moving forces,
sediment,
rivers,
litter,
collect,
reconstruct,
reinterprate ?

More playing around with the projector has lead to a departure of sorts.
The film here is projected across various objects, some featured in it, some not. As a reasult the movement is fragmented and the piece become more like a dance.
The thing that interests me in dance is moments when shapes and forms emerge as the dancers arrive at a position or converge with oneanother, which then disolve as the movement sequence continues.
Something similar is beginning to occur here which makes sense.

I have had some great feedback from my visitors too, lots of reference to collage, and a little bit of resistance.
I wonder if it is a natural thing to be frustrated by a language that you don't speak, and to seek to define and form a solid opinion about something unknown.

Showing work to the non art public can be like speaking french to someone who doesn't speak the language and has never been to france, perhaps met a french person once and though they were nice but a bit odd.

I remember thinking contempoary art was a load of incomprehensible rubbish at one time, before I realised the potential of an unlimited journey wtih my imagination.
I am beginning to think that all opinions and viewpoints must be temporary if you are to really descover what your imagination holds.
