The chair came from the idea to make a workstation sculpture, I’d been making the workstation paintings already and wanted to make a sculptural version and was thinking about youtube and Vlogging and DIY video studio setups that people make but also bedroom being a place of work. Which became even more so in the pandemic. I usually made things pretty solidly in reality like it’s someone’s actual workstation but this time I wanted to take it more into fantasy and more sci-fi. It‘s called Chris just as a kinda joke about how tech companies often name their assistant with fem names like Alexa, Cortana etc…
The Polly Pocket posters are from a series of stop-motion animations I made, I just got into the aesthetic of stop-motion because of how time consuming it is. This one was kind of cool because of the claustrophobia of zooming out from the Polly Pocket contained life, into the contained life of a studio flat.
When I got asked to do this show originally it was November 2019 and it would open November 2020. This gave me the opportunity to make the show over an entire year so the work could be about the passing of that time.
The first idea I had to exhibit time, was to film a NYE party, representing a beginning or an ending. I didn’t really get organised enough to actually film 2020’s NYE and then didn‘t sort out a situation where I could fake it. The pandemic hit and I kinda gave up on the idea but I moved into a house with a lot of flatmates and realised if they are all up for it we are enough people to fake a low key NYE house party.
I called it Hogmanay because I like the idea to place it in Scotland even though it was not filmed there, to add another level of fiction.
Probably, the only common thread in all these things is fiction.
