Millennium Court Arts Centre is delighted to present Intuitive Actions, Common Attributes and Isolated Incidents, a solo exhibition by Belfast-based Welsh artist and curator Peter Richards. The exhibition is composed of 12 new and re-presented works, some of which will be assembled and only activated on the exhibition’s opening.
Richards moves fluidly between disciplines using performance, pinhole and analogue photography, video, film, audio, text and mark making. In his practice he explores the durational aspect of early photographic techniques and the representation of performance, often working collaboratively in series and regularly making use of antiquated equipment – slide and film projectors, reel-to-reel, SVHS. For Intuitive Actions, Common Attributes and Isolated Incidents Richards continues to develop these ideas as he explores and plays on the literal, physical and metaphysical implications of time, circularity, process and duration, also referencing the work of Lucy Lippard, Herbert Marcuse, and Samuel Beckett’s Endgame.
A publication will follow the exhibition.
