14 October – 20 November 2011

‘Found Footage: Whitechapel’ is the latest in a series of animated works constructed entirely from still digital photographs, which play on the relationship between the still and moving image. The others in the series include ‘Love Brid’ (2009), a short film commissioned by Animate Projects, and ‘Found Footage: Bangkok’ for an exhibition at BU Gallery, Bangkok, Thailand (2010).
For ‘Found Footage: Whitechapel’, Susan Collins photographed over 10,000 images around Shoreditch, Whitechapel and Stepney over a few days in July 2011.
The title refers to the ‘found’ subjects which Collins came across, framed and captured with her camera.

Opening Times: Mon – Thurs 9am – 9pm, Fri 9am – 6pm, Sat 9am – 5pm, Sun 11am – 5pm

The works in the series can be seen as portraits of particular places, celebrating their character and energy. Collins immerses herself in each location, collecting myriad images which are then edited into a tribute to her subject. The diversity and vibrancy of the areas in and around Whitechapel provide rich source material for the latest installment in the series.

The exhibition is presented in collaboration with Film and Video Umbrella with additional equipment kindly lent by Whitechapel Gallery.

Uncontainable: Broken Stillness

The work in Uncontainable: Broken Stillness asks the viewer to address the issue of the relationship between new creative practices and older analogue pursuits such as painting and pre-digital photography – the exhibition suggests that the temptation to discard art history in the digital era may be misguided. Uncontainable: Broken Stillness is a shameless celebration of an artist’s signature
work and style in an age embracing collective authoring, sharing and the ‘hive mind’. The exhibition does not suggest an alternative for shared working but that there is space for individual practice to make a contribution. The works have been selected for their use of digital techniques embedded in the development of a visual language begun in earlier forms of image-making. Much of the work is
implicitly political and subverts the mainstream use of technology particularly in relation to speed, mostly by slowing the process down at least for the viewer. The artists are using the unique value of technology to increase the spectrum of mark-making, landscape, media and gesture.

21 July – 30 October 2011
