The Tension of My Own Endurance 2010 (Video Still)

The Tension of My Own Endurance 2010

This is a sneak peek of some new moving image work that is currently in production during my time in New York. Its an extension of my early video work, but here I'm fusing both still and moving image together to create a moving Painting. The main source of inspiration has been drawn has been from a long time love affair with Francis Bacon's Paintings. For me when ever I have the opportunity to his paintings in the flesh, they appear to be alive and moving but at the same time very still, as if oscillating on the very surface of the painting. This notion is my starting point but also part of the conclusion.
