Yes Wave, a duo show with Wellington based artist Simon Cuming and Auckland based artist Sean Kerr. Sean employs ill-mannered scenarios and misbehaving machines that owe as much to communication theory as to slapstick comedy Simon Cuming will be a “working artist” in the gallery for three days. Working through a range of media including print, sound and performance, he is investigating the non-objective object and the relationship to popular culture, expolating the sounds of horror and sci-fi film and representing this data via homebuilt noise generators.
At present Simon Cuming is collecting graffiti “Blanks” via photographic documentation.
Sean Kerr lives and works in Auckland, New Zealand, where he is a Senior Lecturer at Elam School of Fine Arts, University of Auckland . http://www.seankerr.net
