Episodes (3) / "TRAILER"
2008
2 channel video installation
Episodes (3), 33 minutes. "TRAILER", 3.45 mins
Episodes (3) is projected once per hour. Whilst it is not playing, "TRAILER" is shown looped on a separate monitor nearby.
A three “act” video, complimented by its own trailer, draws out threads of narrative from an improvised performance process. Pitting two ‘families’ into a set built for neither, they are compelled to negotiate the space and reconcile themselves to each other (or not).
The families are composed as follows:
A) Narrator (Control), Narrator (Excess), Fool (Control), Fool (Excess).
B) Three fluorescent guys.
This work was commissioned by and made possible with extensive support from Transmission Gallery, Glasgow. Big thanks to the committee.
