SOCIAL EXPERIMENTS + CLASSIC VERSE
|
WHO'S INVOLVED? THE LEFTOVERS IS A CIRCLE OF SELF LEAD, SELF INITIATING ARTISTS WHO ARE BREATHLESSLY CONSUMED WITH
HUMAN PERCEPTION. WE CONDUCT INTIMATE SOCIAL EXPERIMENTS UTILISING AUDIENCE INTUITION. THERE IS A CORE GROUP OF ANARCHY ARTISTS (DEFINITION: FREEDOM OF THE INDIVIDUAL) AND EACH NEW WORK INDIVIDUALLY CURATES ADDITIONAL ARTISTS. WHY IS IT NEW AND EXCITING? THE LEFTOVERS IS A CELEBRATION OF AUDIENCE DIVERSITY. THE LEFTOVERS WORK FROM A MANIFESTO - WHICH INCLUDE: FREE PUBLIC WORK NO GROUP REHEARSAL FREEDOM OF THE ARTIST TO REALISE THE CONCEPT VISUAL COMPONENT ANTI PROSCENIUM ARCH PURITY OF THEIR IDEAL. WE USE CLASSIC VERSE AND TEXT TO REALISE OUR SOCIAL EXPERIMENTS. THE ORDER OF THE NIGHT IS AUDIENCE LEAD. VIA A CRITIQUE BOOKLET AND OPEN DIALOGUE AUDIENCE PLAY A ROLE. HOW DID IT GET STARTED THE LEFTOVERS STARTED WITH ARTISTS WHO BELIEVED THAT SOCIETY SHOULD HAVE ACCESS TO HIGH QUALITY THOUGHTFUL ART AT NO COST TO THE PUBLIC. WHAT IS IMPORTANT IS THAT THE ART WAS AIMED FOR THE AUDIENCE TO RE- SENSE THEIR RESPONSES TO CONTEMPORARY HUMAN ISSUES, CONTEMPORARY STORY TELLING AND TEST THE ROLE OF ART IN MODERN SOCIETY IN AN INTIMATE, MEANINGFUL WAY. WHAT IS THE FORMAT THE FORMAT IS DETERMINED BY THE PROJECT. WE HAVE HAD AUDIENCES OF 4 ON CYCLE FOR 10 MIN REPEATED OVER 2 HRS. THIS WAS SITE SPECIFIC - A RESIDENTIAL HOUSE. THE LAST FEW PROJECTS RANGE FROM UNDERWEAR CLAD STATUES WITH MACRO CAMERAS WITH A LIVE ACTION TO VOTING FOR TO NEW RULER WHERE NO ENGLISH WAS SPOKEN, TO MEETING AN ACTOR IN A PUBLIC SPACE TO HAVE AN INTIMACY EXPERIMENT AND GOING ON A JACOBEAN WHODUNNIT . AT THE END OF THE NIGHT AUDIENCE ARE INVITED TO SHARE THEIR DATA WITH FELLOW PATRONS AND WE HAVE AN ARTIST DISCOURSE. WHY IS IT INTERESTING THE WORK IS INTERESTING BECAUSE IT'S PURELY AIMED AT THE AUDIENCE FOR THEM TO OBSERVE AND STEP IN TO THE WORLD OF THE CONTEMPORARY ARTISTIC EXAMINATION . IT'S FUN, SHORT SHARP AND ACCESSIBLE CELEBRATING EACH INDIVIDUAL AUDIENCE MEMBER'S UNIQUENESS. COLLATERAL THE WORK IS IMMEDIATE AND EXPERIENTIAL. PHOTOS OF THE ARTISTS AND IN PERFORMANCE ARE NOT HELPFUL FOR THE WORK. IT PUSHES THE AUDIENCE INTO A DIFFERENT MODE. WE HAVE SOME | VIDEO ON THIS WEBSITE. WHY ARE WE CURIOUS ARTISTS AND CREATORS WE ARE CURIOUS FOR THE AUDIENCE. WE ARE CONCERNED ONLY WITH THEM, THEIR SENSES - EVERYTHING ELSE IS MEANINGLESS EVERYTHING ELSE IS MEANINGLESS |
