Artist Statement: The primary content of Three Way Conversation consists of a
dialogue held between three individuals. The fractured
conversation has been constructed from separate
monologues serving to link the portraits whilst at the same time
isolating them in their own space. The work questions the
structures of perception, the intrinsic elements in the
construction of representation. The aim is to present multiple
views simultaneously: a 'conventional' one where events
unfold linearly; and a 'sculptural' one, of the apparatus as a
whole, in which each image undergoes structural
manipulation. The conventional and the sculptural co-exist
within the same screen space. This manipulation or editing
has taken place in a 3 dimensional virtual space, creating
discontinuities, shifts in relationships and a perplexity as to
what is being perceived. The perpetual variation in viewpoints
introduces a plurality of actions into the work and at the same
time unifies these as a sculptural whole. Sharp, exact images
are lost and found again like an endless stream of
remembering and forgetting.
