Paul Glennon (UK) Time Fragments, 3:09
Film & video programme „Measurements of time“
14/09/2010, Tuesday, 17:00 - 18:00, Studio 7, Art Academy
Moments come and go in a flash and some are more important than others. When I try to remember a moment in time my mind displays a fragment – not unlike a screen shot that most computers are capable of recording. This fragment then allows me access to emotions and thoughts from the time that my mind recorded them. This film is like a digital canvas version of that process. Like memories the fragments are blurry (or pixilated).
My artworks are visual representations of moments, memories and thoughts that I cannot record or communicate using the spoken word. I use the Internet as the main outlet for my artworks. The Internet is ‘designed’ for content and navigation but can it hold Artwork as ‘form’? The World Wide Web is exploited by artists as a portfolio but rarely is the ‘actual’ artwork viewed in its primary medium. I create Artwork that is first and foremost displayed on a Web page with the potential of ‘exhibiting’ in the analogue world as a secondary opportunity.
