Video Piece Title: On Growth and Hair
Concerned with the question of identity this video
loop was shot as a stop-frame sequence over a period of 4 months.
One frame shot each day documenting the re-growth of hair after a
particularly efficient haircut. No cosmetics or artificial enhancements
have been employed to bolster the subject’s ego or interfere
with the effects of the passage of time.
Time Based Drawing: Four Days in Cornwall
An abstract drawing to be carried out and completed
during and specifically for the Moments Exhibition. The date stamp
is the “brush” which simultaneously records the day of
creation and is the mark making implement. The perpetrator will be
on hand every day of the exhibition to complete the section of the
drawing designated for that day

Total belief in the ability to achieve greatness but weighed down
