| Work of art I would like to make Expanding on my recent dance film, ‘Falling’ (Channel 4, ABC, Dance for Camera 2007; Music - Errollyn Wallen MBE; Choreography - Henri Oguike), and previous extreme slow-motion, and innovational video artwork, I propose the following installation: “Big Art is about embodying inspiration, and the Big 4 is in itself a representation of this. There are other elements in the ‘4’ logo (blown up as it is, into monumental size and three dimensional space) that wonderfully symbolise this creative aspiration. The nine quadrangles, of which it is composed, evoke the nine muses who embody the arts and inspire the creation process. In Greek myth these water nymphs are the muses of: dance; music; comedy; history; tragedy; astronomy, and so forth. Exchange ‘history’ for ‘documentary’, ‘tragedy’ for ‘drama’; ‘astronomy’ for ‘science’, and the muses’ particular relevance becomes brilliantly apparent, ever-present, even in our present-day cultural programming. In my installation, each quadrangular facet of the Big 4 will house a ‘muse’: a projected figure filmed underwater and in extreme slow motion; divorced from gravity, but contained within the frame; suspended between embodiment and the undercurrents of inspiration. While complete as individual pieces – and diverse in their apparent age, gender, and ethnicity – when perceived together, from an angle where the segments of the Big 4 ‘fall into place’, the muses will be seen to engage and interact with one another, creating a collective composition. Their slow movement will encourage passers-by to slow down and stop, immersed in this mesmeric dance. Projection will be from individual wide-angle projectors, in ‘black-box’ casing, suspended behind the Big 4 frame, and onto back-projection screens affixed to the front-facing facet of each of the Big 4’s segments.” |
