INSTALLATION
Sound Art by Mark Peter Wright
London based artist Mark Peter Wright has created two original sound works in response to artwork in the new BP Displays.
Room 1970
In response to Susan Hiller's:ÌýDedicated to the Unknown Artists (1972-76), Wright has built a work titled 305 Seconds at Sea. The composition is built from 305, 1-second sound recordings of the sea. Assembling the fragments in non-sequential order, the piece disruptsÌýlinear notions of time.
Room 1990
In response to Damien Hirst's:ÌýThe Acquired Inability to Escape (1991).ÌýThe work, titled A Faint Glimmer, responds specifically to theÌý45mm gap that allows a passage of air between Hirst's cell structure. Composed entirely from recordings of air ventilation shafts in and around London, the piece echoes the cells themes of claustrophobia, surveillance and presence.
Projection by Clay
North Duveens
Witness a real time projection of imagery and light by Jae Huh at Clay who responds to the chronological arrangement of artworks throughout the galleries. Not only will it reveal the progress of time throughout the evening, it will also change in appearance and styling drawing from artist motifs, visual imagery and the architecture of the gallery.
