Chapman and Claydon interrogate how -in a similar- way errors in textual information, the badly inscribed mark, and the misperception can be viewed as phenomena which initiate a kind of unhindered production.
Neil Chapman and Steven Claydon have been producing work in collaboration
over a period of three years. Their collaborative practice explores the
generative potential of the flaw - testing ways in which imperfection
contributes towards productivity in art and writing.
Their concerns
correspond to findings in evolutionary theory: research has revealed that
new attributes developed by a particular species to help it establish itself
alongside competitors result from aberrations in genetic reproduction.
Chapman and Claydon interrogate how -in a similar- way errors in textual
information, the badly inscribed mark, and the misperception can be viewed
as phenomena which initiate a kind of unhindered production.
Following the preview in the Gallery between 6.30 and 9 there will be a live
DJ set with Joe Dillworth in the Macbeth from 9pm, alongside video
screenings of recent work by Chapman and Claydon.
During this exhibition Hoxton Distillery's regular programme of events, Pit
Pony, will commence. Programmed by Michael Gillespie, Pit Pony is a series
of video screenings in the Macbeth on the first Thursday of every month,
beginning on Thursday 5 April.
Opening on Thursday 22 from 18.30.
Open: Friday, Saturday and Sunday 12.00 - 18.00 and by appointment
Late night opening: Thursday 5 April 6.30 - 9.00
