Reading Event: Natasha MacVoy and Carol Laidler with Caroline Vitzthum
Part of Spike Island Open Studios Online 2021
Your phone is my gallery by Natasha MacVoy is a script written during lockdown, which the artist previously shared by reading to the audience one at a time over the phone. MacVoy is interested in carving out intimate spaces for live art and opening up possibilities for where and how art is accessed, with a focus on connectivity and observation.
Carol Laidler’s Chimera States is a new piece of writing that meanders through ideas about consciousness and perception. Over the months she has been developing the work, she’s been reading passages to people in the dark, hoping to activate that state between sleeping and waking. It is intended eventually to be an all-night experience, but for now she invites you to listen to a short passage and drift.
We recommend using headphones for the full audio experience of this event.
