Demonstrations - Photographic Documentation of Live Performances

<i>Demonstrations</i> is a set of works that combines thirteen online videos, specifically on YouTube, with video documentation of twelve live-art performances that ‘un-work’ the original thirteen online videos. The demonstrations research different kinds of ‘trace’ through combined methods that use body (subjective, communal), DIY performance, scores, video documentation, participation and event; they invoke audiences to do (or try) incomplete works that, inherently, seem un-working, mundane, politically ambiguous, and thus ‘inoperative’.This item contains photographic documentation of Demonstrations performed at:<b><i>Open Scores Lab</i></b>, Bath Spa University, Bath, UK (January 2017)<b><i>Elastic</i></b>, Oxford, UK (June 2017)<b>44AD</b>, Bath, UK (September 2017)<b>Wolverhampton University</b>, UK (March 2018)<b><i>Restless Linings </i></b><b>and <i>Acts / Re-Acts 5</i></b><i>, </i>Wimbledon Space, UK (March 2018)<b><i>Squash &amp; Stretch</i></b>, Oxford Brookes University (May 2018)<b><i>Zhuangzi &amp; The Butterfly</i></b>, Tel Aviv University and The Confucius Institute, Israel (May 2018)<b><i>Live</i></b>, Walcot Chapel, Bath, UK (June 2018)<b>Modern Art Oxford</b>, UK (November 2018)<b>Latvian National Television</b>, Latvia (July 2019)<b>Roja Art Lab</b>, Latvia (July 2019)<b><i>Restless Linings</i></b>, Kosar Contemporary, Bristol, UK (November 2019)Images courtesy of Robert Luzar, Stuart Allsopp, Samantha Davies, Dean Kelland, Martin de Taranço, and Ronit Porat.
