Limits and Demonstrations

The installation for which Olivia Normille's two videos ("as above, so below", and "Body Diagrams") were made consisted of video projection sequences, drawings, and sculptural interventions – each functioning like the parts of a deconstructed film. The work employed strategies of editing and collage to interrupt and disrupt the familiar patterns of speech and physical movement; laying bare the materiality and labour in the construction of representational narratives, whilst also fragmenting the passivity that tends to accompany our experience of film viewership and cinematic space.
