Interview (2005)

This piece has come to be called 'Interview', more out of necessity for a title than any strong will to name it. Interviewers and interviewees are chosen for no specific reason, and presented with the interview situation pictured above - a chair, a floodlight, a video camera (after problems with sound reception, a lapel mic may soon be added to the list..). This work is completely open-ended (within the set framework), and no intention or expectation is impressed upon the process by the artist. The interview process will be carried out many more times, perhaps leading to a presentation of the gathered material in the future. For now it exists as a temporal and experiential work, focussed on the activity itself rather than the resulting recordings.

Thank you to everyone who has taken part in the piece.

So far interviews have been carried out at -

Cockpit Gallery, Birmingham
