Description/Abstract: | To compliment this show, there was a talk & live performance by Burgoyne at Lille III Université, March 7th. This new work OK-NO by Burgoyne extends key aspects of his work. The role of play meets the process led and rule based as an interrogation of drawings conceptual framework alongside the body’s comprehension, extension and dispersal of means to be within that site. OK-NO is both affirmation and negation of a position. It begins with Burgoyne aloft 2 stacks of multicoloured floor cloths, seeking to maintain a position on top of all the floor cloths and keeping them together for 3 hours (3 hours is the time the resulting projection is shown each night). Simultaneously, using a IPhone camera, Burgoyne tries to focus on the word ‘chemist’ (pharmacie) on the shop front across the street from the gallery. The stacks of cloths slip, slide and disperse, back and forth, as does Burgoyne while attempting to maintain the unity of this fluctuating arena of cloths and the view ahead. |
