Abbas Zahedi – Sonic Support Group

Ben Doherty
Skirt an edge for long enough and eventually you might fall off… Ben Doherty makes sculptures and multimedia installations that inhabit the edges. Representation begins to give way to the uncanny or unknown as structures and objects hover between absurdly interpreting reality and downright defiling it. The work tips over into a parallel present where […]

These conversations peaked into more performative actions, experimental […]
