    • Tamarin is talking very FAST November 26, 2009
      Rachel Lois Clapham and Alex Eisenberg documented today’s 10 Performances event with a live feed they updated throughout the day. By the time my performance What To Do begins they’re halfway down their third page. I love their occasional attempts to type out variations on everything I was saying. You can read what they’ve written [...]

    • Describing Genuine Smiles November 14, 2009
      This evening I’m going to describe to some friends the following work, which is the same work that appears in the diagram I drew last week. We won’t be able to put the work into practice because we’ll be at someone’s home and we won’t be able to draw lines all over its walls, and [...]

    • The Real Experiment November 4, 2009
      Allan Kaprow again. One characteristic of the lifelike art that was emerging in the sixties: “Various performative modes became the effective way to deal with this shift to the actual environment. Performing was doing something, not acting in theater – moving furniture, for example, just to do it, or because you were changing apartments.” T […]

Tights on Old Street

Posted on October 25, 2007 by Tamarin

I went to a private view last night for a small exhibition just off Old Street. The four artists involved have been working on a collaborative sculpture and textile project for the past eighteen months, and this show marks the second of three temporary, planned pauses in their activity. This is the stock-take pause.
The [...]

Graham Hudson at Rokeby

Posted on October 8, 2007 by Tamarin

My favourite bit of Sonic the Hedgehog on my megadrive was where you had to jump from platform to platform and if you got the timing wrong you’d be hit by one or both of these slowly rotating spiky balls or spiky flying insects. It turns out if you sellotape bin bags over rotary fans [...]

Matthew Monahan at MOCA, Los Angeles

Posted on September 27, 2007 by Tamarin

Nicholas Brown is an artist based between London and California. He makes clunking wooden contraptions that hang somewhere between functionality and aesthetics, so you’re never quite sure if what you’re looking at is the result of a tangled-up performance you’ve just missed, the remnants of some eccentric personal experiment, or an ongoing room-sized project of [...]

Projecting Space at the Central Saint Martin’s MA Show

Posted on September 25, 2007 by Tamarin

As an artist a lot of my work involves video in one form or another, but the disjuncture between the space of the video and the space of the room it’s in never really satisfies me. And so it might be to bridge the gap between the stuff of the artwork and the stuff of [...]
