Ecstatic Realism

Ecstatic Realism

Plain, straightforward Images of American Football fields are placed in a sequence which becomes oddly psychedelic as it moves through various stages of near abstraction in Playground. In Neanderthal Container, a Pleistocene man is dropped from an airplane and remains in perpetual free fall. Back on the ground, several sides of the neanderthal’s personality ruminate on the nature of their being – their thoughts going at what feels like a similar velocity to that of the plummeting dummy. Weresheglanspertheere reinterprets found YouTube videos as lively compositions of abstract images whilst leaving their original soundtracks untouched - to peculiar effect.

Strange advice given in the soundtrack of Buoyed by the irrelevance of their own insignificance adds humour to a beautifully poetic image that was originally inspired by the many occasions artist Andrew Kötting walked past a London taxidermy shop. Moon Blink challenges the complacency of the viewer’s gaze: engaging the spectator through an optical, immersive experience. Images generated by electronic signals call to mind early 3D video games as we are taken on a continuous tour of gateways in Portals. Material Conditions of Inner Spaces is a comedy romp in which three men are trying to change the material conditions by social action; absurdist, fast-paced anarchic social action, that is.
