Jenny Hogarth’s practice is produced in collaboration with Kim Coleman. Since they live in different cities London and Edinburgh, much of the collaboration takes place at a distance. They have developed a system of working in relay, producing a feedback loop that reveals the results of our dialogue.
Their work explores the artistic possibilities of online video, in particular how video-over-IP acts as a sculptural process, compressing, modeling and reconstructing phenomenological space and time. During her talk at Newcastle Jenny will explain how the idea of the happy accident runs through their work and the benefits they have found conceptually and professionally of using this idea in collaboration and beyond…
