The first UK solo exhibition by this leading new media artist revisits ideas of slow motion and duration. Making his own cinematic machines using old technology, Maire reflects on illusion, memory and the passage of time.
Including work made since 1995 alongside new commissions, the exhibition features low-resolution projection, high-voltage photographs with ten-hour exposures, live transmissions of disintegrating slow motion material, and the slowly rotating flip of a coin that stops completely in mid-air.
Curated by AV Festival. UK Premiere. Supported by Northern Rock Foundation.
