A project by Kate-Rose Carrick, Alex Schady and Tomriz Tangaz. The aim of the project is to explore collaboration through conflict and to see how the three participants might use points of fracture and disharmony to build a unique and challenging artwork. Engaging closely with the writer Tomriz Tangaz, the exhibition and publication will develop and respond as the show evolves and mutates.
I can't help you
I’m jealous, I don’t trust you, I won’t look, I won’t make it easy, I can’t
help you.
Kate-Rose Carrick & Alex Schady over the course of four weeks will explore
points of fracture in the dynamics of a collaboration entitled I Can’t Help
You. A third collaborative partner, writer Tomriz Tangaz, will produce a
publication in response to the work.
The aim of the project is to explore collaboration through conflict and to
see how the three participants might use points of fracture and disharmony
to build a unique and challenging artwork. Engaging closely with the writer,
the exhibition and publication will develop and respond as the show evolves
and mutates.
Kate-Rose Carrick and Alex Schady are acquainted with the games
collaborators play – particularly the need to seek convergence, agreement,
clarity, openness, harmony. Starting with a contrary impulse and actively
seeking out points of tension, the artists will develop their work in the
gallery and respond uniquely to the space and participants’ interventions.
There will also be a public reconciliatory discussion between the writer and
artists in the gallery on the last weekend of the project.
Kate-Rose Carrick builds large-scale installations that explore feelings of
unease and discomfort through the use of cinematic and theatrical devices.
Alex Schady uses handicraft materials and playful techniques to explore the
boundaries of formlessness and chaos. Making constructions in situ from
Plasticine, twigs, wool, plastic bags or fabric his work has a home made
quality that always reveals the process by which it was made.
