Pivot

 
 
 
 
 

HD video, 3.44, looped, no audio, 2018


Pivot is a collaboration with an 88-year-old former Scottish gymnastics champion. Through the slowed-down repetition of a simple warm up exercise, this single channel work explores both the frailty and resilience of the human body, and a lifelong commitment to training.

Commissioned for the Big Screens in George Square, Glasgow and Perth Theatre, as part of New Order I Other Spaces, for the cultural programme of the 2018 European Championships. Also exhibited in Threshold artspace, Perth Concert Hall.
