Six pieces originally shown as a gallery installation.
\nSays their creator, the artist Nathaniel Stern<\/a> :
\n‘The odys series consists of six short digital video poems \/ monologues for
\nsmall screen viewing in an intimate gallery space. By stuttering between
\nodys actions and words, listeners construct his person. As he attempts
\nto re-member, bringing the past back to his body and calling it his own,
\nlisteners attempt to piece together a story for themselves. Viewers are
\nencouraged to re-visit and jump over juxtaposed media, and create a
\nshifting collage of, and in response to, his person.’<\/em><\/p>\n

This is work of huge ambition both aesthetically & technically &
\nit’s brave and it’s edgy, sometimes to the point of being uncomfortable to
\nwatch. Neither does Stern fear engaging with complex & difficult ideas.
\nDefinitely worth more than one viewing.<\/p>\n
