A concatenation by 5 UK-based artists.
The Exquisite Stone Corpse
Concatenation is a series of interconnected things or events; engaging
with an initiative conceived by Sophie Loss in collaboration with Stone
Squid Experimental Art Space and five artists follow the Exquisite Corpse
procedure.
Exquisite Corpse or cadavre exquis was the game of consequences
as employed, most notably by the Surrealists, with the intention to
engender chance unexpected outcomes in collective works - a word or
two, or a small portion of a drawing left visible from the edge of folded
paper passed on to, and evolved by the next person in the chain.
The Exquisite Stone Corpse is a group
project by artists; Judy
Goldhill, Joanna Hill, Philip Lee, Sophie Loss & John McDowall.
Each
of the five artists, who utilise different mediums in their practice,
will sequentially create a work developed from the previous participant's
fragment.
The passed-on fragment may be a part of the completed work or an aspect
of its developmental process. For the duration of the project each artist’s
contribution will be inaccessible to the others, and discussion of their
work and practice will be prohibited.
The starting point was devised and presented by Stone Squid, who will
overview the project. A specific time interval is allocated to each
artist within the project’s six months period, following which,
the artists will collaborate with Stone Squideas on the installation
of The Exquisite Stone Corpse in October 2010.
The installation has a live element which contains
adult content.
