Tina Aufiero: swansongs
Heather Dew Oaksen: PAUSE and Rondelet
In conjunction with First Thursday Artwalk on June 4, 4Culture is excited to premiere electronic artworks for e4c by Tina Aufiero and Heather Dew Oaksen.
Between ‘nature observer’ and ‘obsessed videographer’, Tina Aufiero documents and frames the arrival of trumpeter swans in Skagit Valley, Washington. Swansongs, a video piece created for e4c is a record of her experience.
PAUSE, a four-channel video installation created by Heather Dew Oaksen and Norie Sato, investigates the notion of parallel experience as it relates to simultaneity, quotidian cycles and the space-time continuum. Through the use of multiple images, the artists hoped to consider both micro and macro levels of daily existence. Rondelet by Heather Dew Oaksen, is a four-channel pattern piece, exploring the manipulation of time through expansion and contraction to confound our sense of linear sequencing.
These projects join the ongoing rotation of work on e4c, currently featuring pieces by: Stephen Hilyard, Perry Bard, Thom Heileson & Wyndel Hunt, Gazelle Samizay, Kamran Sadeghi, Robert Zverina, Salise Hughes, Bennett Morris, Relja Penezic & Victoria Jordanova.
