The GIFs were available for festival followers to download and to share on social media for the duration of the festival only (from 29 September to 2 October).
This project is part of A- – -Z‘s ongoing research project around the display and dissemination of artwork. It adds to the morphic and viral forms of the platform.
A- – -Z is an exploratory curatorial platform produced by Anne Duffau. Taking the formula of the alphabet, A- – -Z uses words related to the idea of entropy as a starting point to map out and test various unstable potentials.
One letter, one experiment, twenty six times. A- – -Z is currently based at StudioRCA Riverlight, developing a series of newly commissioned videos and installations.
