Coalitions

Alignment
A selection of images documenting Alignment from the Mutual Exchange Exhibition in the Courthouse Gallery, Ennistymon, Co. Clare, October 20-Nov 15, 2009.

This process of  artistic intervention is a coalition: supporting 2 different art practices. Fiona Woods initally intervened in the space by suspending 3 assemblages from the ceiling. In a performative intervention over 4 performance Maria Kerin was invited by Fiona to respond to the sculpture. This time based cumulative research process brought 2 practices into temporary alignment as the work unfolded through the making. As part of the research the work was documented in different ways; through Fiona photographing the moments of alignment, through stationary video from above the space and finally 5 artists were invited in to record video snips on their mobile phones.
