Friday Event - Nan Hoover


in/out
light installation
Dusseldorf, 1993


Notes from lecture:

There are a spectrum of qualities of light - and how different light conditions affect how we perceive. All of the shades of gray in Glasgow - light stops only when it catches something.

Light touching the body - an erotic element

The origins of ideas (seed of a work) are bridges of thought
Why do we cross-disciplines? New ways of working are at our fingertips - inscribing space.

Instillation, like performance, only happens once, but survives, post-life, in documentation.

The joy & contribution of the artist is creating works that live outside of themselves.

Intention of transportation by slowing down time, a space for reflection which is where original thought lives.
