Shelly Nadashi
Refrigerating Apparatus/Medium,
2012

Combining sculpture, telekinesis, a guide to email etiquette, and Kung Fu Kata exercise patterns, performance artist Shelly Nadashi explores the distinctions between muteness and speech, movement versus stasis, and performance versus installation.

HDHB, 2011

Often, when a film is illegally re-shot in a cinema, it is at an oblique angle and some of the image is lost. Glasgow-based artists Corin Sworn and Charlotte Prodger’s collaborative performance-film HDHB (2011) uses this reframing and compression to critique hierarchies of image quality, suggesting industrial modes of calibration as a process of sensory normalisation.

Sophie Macpherson & Clare Stephenson
SHOPLIFTERS SHOPGIRLS, 2011

Working in collaboration, the artists developed SHOPLIFTERS SHOPGIRLS (2011) while in residence at Tramway, using the different functions and spaces of the building as a backdrop to a discussion about performance, ritual, theatricality, and the use and production of objects. This period of experimentation led to a live event at Tramway, which the artists have reinterpreted for the Biennial.
