Video Works

 

A Hard Place (clip)

In this video work the (re)construction of identity is explored through using text from interviews with ex-Hunger Strikers, from the Northern Irish conflict. These testimonies have fused into a single voice and reveal a collective memorial residue. The function and role of memory in the simulation and
re-enactment of experience directs the practice in exploration of historical consciousness, both on individual and collective levels.

 

 

 

Today in History (clip)

This work looks at a re-reading of history by using a multi-screen format. The video imagery is both authored and found in nature, for instance vernacular super-8 image sequences of 1981 Hunger Strike funerals. This amateur video clip sits with video imagery from Iran and re-enactments in Belfast from 2006. These visual materials has been re-positioned and re-contextualised to unpack the formation of history and the image’s role on this process.
