The Ply Gallery hosts SPLICE - Live art and photography in collaboration.
Notions of ephemerality and capture, of absence and artefact collide in an encounter between three artists-in-residence: performing artists Cassandra Fumi and Beautiful Confusion Collective and photographer Andrew McGibbon.
About
Another sits on a stool.
A man raises his camera.
The spine moves.
The ice melts.
The image remains.
In dialogue with Fumi's AN ACT OF SELF-DESTRUCTION (Vault Festival Gallery), a durational live art work during which the performer lies under a triptych of melting ice-paintings, McGibbon's photographs suspend the moment before the inevitable destruction begins. In collaboration with Beautiful Confusion Collective, McGibbon's series of back-portraits, WHAT'S YOUR BACKSTORY?, broaden the conversation about backstory as personal narrative and physical archive started by the company's contemporary dance performance BACKSTORIES (Brighton Fringe, Space to Dance Award nominee).
