[spectre] Exhibition Transformations (23/06/2017 - 30/06/2017)

[Garrett Lynch]

The School of Arts and Creative Industries, London South Bank University
presents a solo exhibition of networked artworks by artist Garrett Lynch
(IRL) (http://www.asquare.org/) titled Transformations.

Transformations presents nine networked artworks conceived over a four-year
period that explore a practice involving networks.  Each artwork provides
an example of transformation by a network.  This includes the
transformation of what is arranged as part of the conception of the artwork
and as a consequence the transformation of what can be considered as an
artwork.  The artworks consideration of networks are as a method informed
by concept, possible to apply to a variety of forms and thereby situate
networked art within transdisciplinary practice.

Works in the exhibition include: The Distinction Between Here and There,
Now and Then (2013), a networked performance about 'virtual' and 'real'
spaces and the relationship between action and its documentation; This is
Real Virtuality (2013 - 2014), a networked performance consisting of a
first-person narrative that recounts the experiences of an unnamed
protagonist noticing colliding virtu/re-alities; A network of people who
attended an exhibition and contributed to the creation of this work (2014 -
2015), a networking event that occurs across 'virtual' and 'real' spaces;
Remote Encounters: Connecting bodies, collapsing spaces and temporal
ubiquity in networked performance (2013), a social event as networked
artwork; We Entomb Memoir (2015), a networked performance appropriating and
détourning media; Sculptures for Distant Places (2014 - 2017), a series of
three networked sculptures; Tran$actions (2015 - 2017), a networked
performance occurring within online gambling websites; Transformations:
Actions to Matter / Matter to Actions (2015 – ongoing), a networked
performance occurring through the online 'free stuff' community and Auction
action – commission an artwork (2017), an eBay auction as site for
performance and artwork commissioning.
