Most images will display in a virtual light-box when clicked. Watermarks are for web images only.
Concepts originally created in the virtual world remain virtual until such time as an appropriate exhibition opportunity or an agreed commission encourages a real world manifestation.
(While they remain in revad's collection) concepts made in the real world are now ready for exhibition.

The first physical outcome from the virtual and ongoing original. Presented as-if an office notice board.

Overlaid components trimmed from A4 office paper segments, printed on an office inkjet printer, and mounted in a wall mount office sign holder (two sheets of 5mm acrylic connected and spaced by four turned aluminium spacers); 48cm x 65.5cm x 4cm.

This outcome represents a snapshot from an ongoing process. The on-line record of the current state of the coded record can be found at virtual.codedimages.com/tun, where you will also find a link to instructions on how to contribute new names.

C I R C U A R E m (and me)

From circle to square via CIRCUARE. What happens when an artist questions the exhibition opportunities on offer. Why are in-line videos allowed in an a-n blog when static images are not? Why does a video need to move? Can what is expected to be kinetic satisfy when static?

These are some of the new questions involved in stimulating C I R C U A R E m (and me).

A series of twenty seven, fifty five second duration, static video components presented in reverse chronological order within an a-n blog. A blog used as-if a gallery.

Chipboard, soft wood, emulsion, office paper, tracing paper, acetate sheet, plastic binding combs, pigment ink, foam board, mount board, graphite, video, digital photo frame, power brick, cables and various fixings (gallery board clips, screws, hooks and rods); 250 x 130 x 130 cm.

An installation made for Revad’s BA (Hons) Drawing for Fine Art Practice Degree Final Exhibition. There is a blog of around 100 posts dedicated to the research and production of this work covering the five month period from early January to early June 2010. You will also find a related artist statement available here as a printable PDF (163kb).

This kinetic component is rotated 90 degrees anticlockwise in the installation. It is shown here in landscape mode due to the limitations of Vimeo / YouTube. As an artist, Revad accepts that every translation to a new medium and/or situation creates a new work - making this inconsistency much less of a problem than you might at first think. The only way to see the work as originally intended is to visit the real world installation - as and when it becomes available.
