"In Search of The Real: Glitches" (a simultaneous work, shown at Towner in the East Sussex Open 2014) was a response to a disenchantment with the current global social/political environment. A glitch is also referred to as a spike of electrical current. A spike seems more hopeful than a glitch. This video is one of a series which make use of found videos that originally imparted a philosophical or spiritual argument. It explores a state of continual flux, dissolving realities and poses questions of possibility. Does art facilitate a liberation of the mind? I am finding that the more liberated my thinking becomes the more is revealed that was previously un-seen/heard.

What does it take to say a word of love? How long and how much strength does it take for the heart to speak? How many streets at night? How fast? How many faces in how many bars? What tenderness? What pain? What music? What images in the mind? And where does it come from? Is it in the darkness of a closed park at night? In the back room of a Chinese bar? In the bottom of a beer? In a collective dance? In a sister's laughter? When does it finally happen? For the soul to let go.
