HAT's off...

HAT (Hadleigh Art Trail 2011) is on this week.  My venue is in the back of beyond in the Regeneration shop.  Originally advised it was an empty shop, I discovered it is still operating 4 days/week at strange hours.  So, my 'view from the street' display of 4 old tellies showing my silent film of the rush hour seemed relevant to the plans displayed within to regenerate the Hadleigh centre and get a little more 'hustle' into this part of town.  So, my experience of exhibiting video is slowly growing (Rayleigh Mill was two projections, this one is multiple monitors).  Next step, I hope (I'm seeking some professional guidance) should be video wall effects.  I have in mind a great pile of old TVs (the Hadleigh ones were £6/each from Sue Ryder) showing various combinations of film.  It's whetted my appetite to extend some of the trial ideas I had around 3 years ago for sound/vision installation.  We shall see...

The display also included some linocuts...all to be viewed from outside the shop.
