Palimpsest Portraits Neil Fried and Monica Duncan

Featuring work by: Monica Duncan, Neil Fried

Exhibition: Thu, Sep 10 to Sat, Oct 17 2009

Neil Fried (Atlanta) and Monica Duncan (San Diego) present Palimpsest Portraits, a video project using a technique the artists have termed ‘encaustic video’. The traditionally linear format of the video process is altered by Duncan and Fried as they use a process wherein real-time image processing siphons off portions of the video stream into a reservoir of computer memory that either fades of fixes, according to degrees of luminosity in the scene. Like the palimpsest, some areas must be rubbed out to admit the new, but are never totally lost. The video portraits to be presented in Palimpsest Portraits are the initial stage of larger project that will culminate in a video piece wherein the characters inhabit architectural forms in site-specific, interactive performance in a city that resembles Atlanta.

: Thu, Sep 10, 7pm - 9pm

Other: Fri, Oct 2, 7pm - 12am
