Announcement: video work by Reiko Aoyagi


Reiko Aoyagi: Flow
The latest work from Chapter based artist Reiko Aoyagi is an ongoing webcam broadcast from a sculptural excavation at the Stone Quarry Hill Art Park in New York, USA . Made by Aoyagi during a residency at the park in summer 2006, the excavation may at first glance seem like an intrusion on the natural landscape, but allows for a process of renewal and regeneration.
At Chapter, the webcam image will be projected in real-time onto a large screen in the theatre auditorium. Subject to internet delays and the distorted grain of the webcam picture, the projected transmission is a link to a real place, a landscape in which change can be seen in the ever present aspect of the natural world, opening up the potential for dialogue and thought.
Each evening’s screening will last approximately one hour and be introduced by Reiko Aoyagi and Chapter Theatre Programmer James Tyson.
