NATURE AS PERFORMER IN THE FILMS AND INSTALLATIONS OF CHRIS WELSBY

Chris Welsby has been making and exhibiting work since 1969. His films and film/video installations have been exhibited internationally, at major galleries and museums. In April 2009, he will be presenting at SCRATCH some 16mm films from the 70’s and some recent works.

"In my single screen films and single channel videos the mechanics of film and video interact with the landscape in such a way that elemental processes - such as changes in light, the rise and fall of the tide or changes in wind direction - are given the space and time to participate in the process of representation. The resulting sequences of images make it possible to envisage a relationship between technology and nature based on principles other than exploitation and domination.”
