Patrick O'Growney and Frances Ryan
The work in the exhibition touches on themes of relationships, social control
and personal boundaries. Patrick O'Growney's work constructs a rythmic dialogue
of video sequences across two large-scale projections. He explores aspects of
ritual in relation to skill, repetition, knowledge and transference, having
filmed in London, Scotland and Ireland in response to each specific place.
In a disjointed narrative Frances Ryan puts together prints and photographs
taken from various sources including documentation of previous installations and
found images which act as metaphors for flight. The work forms a long linear
panel around the room, offering a study of behaviour, introspection and the
reinforcement of conditioning environments.
Born in Co. Meath, Ireland in 1972, Patrick O'Growney moved to central Scotland
in July 2001 after graduating from BA Sculpture at Sheffield Hallam University.
Frances Ryan is currently undertaking MFA at Edinburgh College of Art. She
graduated from Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art, Dundee in 2000.
