More InformationAccessibility notes: This is a basement lecture theatre accessible via a lift. Adam Chodzko is a multimedia artist whose work often takes the form of searches—trying to see collectively in relation with others, while also glimpsing with them what we prefer to look away from. From video, performance, drawing and sculpture to socially-engaged processes, his art explores the ecologies of how we connect with each other and the world, creating social spaces that blur documentary and fantasy, conceptualism and surrealism, remoteness and intimacy, the public and private. Ben Judd (lives and works in London) is an artist who makes performances, moving image and installations that examine collectivity and participation, enabling different forms of communities to be explored in relation to site and context. He often works with collaborators as a method to develop self-reflexive folk histories and construct temporary communities. | |||||||||||||||
