t s Beall – final residency presentation Thurs 17 – Fri 18 June

t s Beall – endless invasion and other works in progress as part of Standpoint Futures Residency Program

16 – 17 June 2011, 12 – 6pm

Artist talk and drinks 16 June, 6.30pm

Through the lense of modern reconnaissance imagery, t s Beall explores the notion of omnipotent vision and panoramic landscape structures as idealised, impossible constructions of vision and place. This ‘impossibility of vision’ is at the heart of Beall’s practice.

Referencing the content and aesthetic of historic panoramas and other landscapes and battle scenes as portrayed by nineteenth-century painters and photographers, Beall draws parallels with landscape imagery captured by contemporary surveilance technology. In both scenarios, Beall is concerned with the illusory effect.

She often constructs expansive works where the viewer is encouraged to physically engage with the space inhabited by the structures and screens she builds. While historical panoramas were shown in pupose built structures to heighten the illusion of space, for Standpoint the artist has chosen to fracture the moving image, reflecting our disjointed relationship to the images of war and reconnassaince that surround us. With this physical experimentation, Beall explores how digital media shifts our notions of place – how landscape is both imaged and imagined by modern technology.

For her final public presenation of work at Standpoint, the artist will show several works in progress, including studio presentations of exploserama and endless invasion. Exploserama is a cyclorama of never-ending explosions using found footage culled from online sources. endless invasion is a poetic presentation of paratrooper training exercises.

Recent solo exhibitions include Here Be Dragons, Colby Museum, Maine, (Catalogue) 2008/9; Untitled Horses in collaboration with composer Mary Bellamy, Castlefield Gallery, Manchester, 2007; Light Blind in collaboration with composer Mary Bellamy, Brooklyn Fireproof Gallery, New York, 2006. Recent group exhibitions include A Stone’s Throw Away (Glasgow International Festival of Visual Art), Glasgow, 2010; COMPOUND, dewalab, Belfast, 2009; gleDinBow (Edinburgh Arts Festival), Travelling Gallery, Edinburgh, 2008.

This special two-day presentation is part of t s Beall’s participation in the Standpoint Futures Development Residencies programme specifically for artists based outside of London. It will include a talk at 6.30 by t s Beall on Thursday 16th June, and an opportunity to meet and talk to t s Beall at any time during the 2 days between Thurs 16th – Fri 17th June.
