Collaboration with Ben Caro and Kat Cutler-Mackenzie
 

Dual channel 35mm slide projection, 162 slides, with accompanying stereo sound work created by Joanne Matthews and Alvaro Castaño García.

​

feeling looking is a dual channel 35mm slide installation with accompanying stereo sound. The work explores the erotics of the gaze in the museum, with a focus on the figurative (neo-)classical sculptures at the Altes Museum (Berlin), The British Museum (London) and The Victoria and Albert Museum (London).

The techno sound is pumping, with breathy vocals, and an undercurrent of unease, through a large haze-filled space. Two screens are suspended one above the other in the middle of the space, back-projected, light beams cast by haze. Two synced carousel slide projectors throw black and white photographs, rich with grain, some blooming with chemical effervescences.
