3 - 18 June 2006 After The House Is Burnt, Pick Up The Nails - Katie Davies Katie Davies presents a new video installation that is a response to her recent seven-month residency in Seoul.
After the house is burnt, pick up the nails is a result of the artist’s fascination with the influence of Confucianism on contemporary Korean culture; similarly it represents the experiences of a foreigner coming to terms with an unknown, mesmeric environment.
Using commercial video footage and audio recording the installation presents us with impressions of a chaotic and bustling metropolis and hints at the ideologies to be found within its fabric.
Open Thursday - Sunday - 12-6pm - free entry Artist talk - Sunday 18 June - 2pm |
