Tracy German ~ Impeded Streams and Stains
August 12 - September 19, 2004
The installation at the Durham Art Gallery consists of five 16mm film projectors which display images over various wall and floor surfaces strewn with sand, water and fabric, reflecting the imagery within the film.
The
small lengths of film endlessly looping through each projector
are intended to be individual sentences which, viewed in
context with each other, provide the larger picture that
is the narrative. The viewer negotiates the physical space
of the gallery while aware of the multiple imagery and clacking
projectors with the shadows and presence of other viewers
also, a lively interference to the installation. The accompanying
soundscape by sound designer Alex Bullick, comprised of
resonant bass vibrations on the didgeridoo, is integral
to this work. Impeded Streams and Stains will open on Thursday,
August 26 between 6 and 8pm and is part of our 3rd Annual
Fabulous Festival of Fringe Film.
