Friday I’m In Love

Opening: Friday, 27 November 2020

Due to the current lockdown visiting the exhibition is difficult

and complicated, and confusing, and rather strange

viewers discretion advised

How it works?

Find a wall with a minimum size of approx. 3 by 3 meters

or approx. 10 by 10 feet. Allow a distance in front of the wall

of at least 5 feet or at least 1,5 meters. Find a person who is

willing to read and perform a text for a video recording.

Write a text that will take about 2 to 3 minutes to read and perform.

Mount the background posters in an irregular order on the wall.

Explain to the performer that the text should be presented as if

a large audience would listen. During the presentation, the performer (male or female) is marking elements on the posters,

potentially writing on them, or making marks. Record the person reading and performing the text in front of the wall. Repeat the recording as often as you and the performer are willing to do and

select the best parts from each recording, so one complete set of

the compiled recording can be constructed. The recording can be made before the exhibition or at the opening. Find a way to make

this recording play audio-visually during the exhibition near the wall.
