    Under/Stand

    • 2011
    • Wrik Mead

    Over 2500 hand drawn frames create a rotoscope animation of a figure that continuously climbs and falls from a bust of the artist. As the animated figure moves around the bust he exposes different parts of the artists own skin. The performance is an endless loop as he struggles to reach the top. His victory is short lived though as he stumbles shortly after he reaches the summit. After the fall he simply brushes himself and begins the climb again.

    Manholes (Kevin)

    • 2010
    • Wrik Mead

    The “Manholes” series takes a pan of a single male figure and fragments it into a grid of peepholes. The microscopic mapping of the body is intimate yet clinical. The cascading body parts create a kaleidoscope of changing skin tones. It is difficult to find the point of origin on the subject’s body, though occasionally signifiers make it possible; an eye, a nipple or the toes suddenly orient the viewer.
