A talk by Tom Dale
Date: 24 November 2010
Time: 14.00
Venue: Ruskin 211
Tom Dale is currently a PhD student at Anglia Ruskin University. Tom's research has developed from a concern with sculpture, having then broadened out into various concerns with installation/object and moving image. He is particularly interested in how the object increasingly operates as a 'portal' - whereby sculptural objects become shifting signifiers, screen-like and virtual rather than physically grounded and univocal. Not only are objects and images subverted in some way, but they also examine the potential for a frictional relationship to their origins in the everyday and popular culture.
