Event overview
As paracuratorial programme for the exhibition Hierophanies at the Swiss Church in London, two artist films by Patrick Hough and Andy Holden will be screened.
The exhibition will be accompanied by an artist film screening on the 13th of March in the Swiss Church. The programme will include video works by Patrick Hough and British artist Andy Holden. Hough contributes Object Interviews, a series of three films in which specialists from various fields interpret and discuss a range of film props.
Within these films the prop takes centre stage as an object in some ways more powerful and significant than the “original” historical artefact, opening up a space for fiction to become part of our understanding of history. Andy Holden’s video work Catharsis (2016) centres around the meaning of the object as projection area of human needs, culture and desires.
Deriving from the profane object, Holden elaborates complex thoughts and theories on the meaning of the collector’s item. This approach to the objects agency brings a new perspective into the discourse of the exhibition.
