Description: | An online video chat generates two live portraits with changeable backdrops. It is a digital two-way mirror, a self-reflexive feedback loop wherein we witness ourselves talking back. 'If You Can't See My Mirrors I Can't See You' is a single channel video work that invites the audience to eavesdrop upon the artists' Skype conversation. The dynamics of the dialogue are recorded and reassembled, to reveal spaces between and around objects and subjects. The computer screen operates as both a mirror and lamp, whilst acting as a frame into another world and a mimetic means of duplicating information. Made in collaboration with Jenny Hogarth, this work was made possible through the support of Serpentine Screen CINACT. If You Can't See My Mirrors I Can't See You was premiered at Serpentine Screen London as part of a joint event with Agnes Varda. It has also been shown at V22, London; in the 'experimental' section of the Minneapolis Film Festival, at Konstcentralen Stockholm, and at CIRCA Projects, Newcastle. |
