The last day of Nomad’s exploration of public spaces & contemporary approaches to exhibition & performance, Tai Shani creates films & performances that evoke cosmologies of interconnected being. Fantastic & dreamlike.

Clusterfuck is a term used to describe a particular kind of catch 22, in which multiple complicated problems mutually interfere with each other’s solution. It is a zone that asks to be inhabited, an indeterminacy encouraging new readings and perceptions. Until the 1st August, four artists with diverging practices have been asked to collaborate on a project that embraces hybrid authorship, an intentional mess for both artists and audience to navigate. STEPHEN CORNFORD is a sculptor working with music, sound and noise. His principal materials are musical instruments and audio technologies, which he treats with a disregard for their normal function in an effort to forget their iconography and focus on their physicality. NATHAN PARKER works predominantly in film and video, installations, sculpture and set design. Parker’s work explores various archetypes and tropes found in fairy tales, Norse mythology, ritual, fetishism and contemporary music. HENRY STRINGER takes inspiration from the physicality of the material he uses to create large site specific constructions that primarily endeavor to encourages audience participation. HUMAN SEPARATION is a mechanical band performance incorporating a wide variety of mundane motorized objects/machines adapted to play the stock instruments of live rock music. This ongoing venture investigates the possibilities and problems of inserting primitive technologies between the musician’s hands and the instrument. And, on the 29th TAI SHANI creates films and performances, seeking out the moments of intensity underpinning the production and play of images both existent and to come.
