GEORGE CLARK-RODEN:
BA (Hons) Fine Art - MA Fine Art
A work of art is never beautiful, by decree, objectively, for everyone. Criticism is, therefore, useless; it only exists subjectively, for every individual, and without the slightest general characteristic. Do people imagine they have found the psychic basis common to all humanity?
Tristan Tzara, Dada Manifesto (1918)
(Interactive Sound/Light Installation) (Film Section)
My creative focus is primarily concerned with subjective and intersubjective perception, psychoacoustics and psychophysics.
A distinction exists between viewer and artist. Through the development of interactive sound installation I attempt to blur that distinction. The content of the work holds a potentiality for performative sensory interaction and invites the viewer to adopt the role of performer. The human interaction itself becoming an interface in turn demonstrating the synergistic relationships that develop between the combination of performer, object, light and sound. Expanding the experience of the condition of existence.
