About Being Different is the result of his 2 month residency at BALTIC and is a collaboration with local vicars from the NewcastleGateshead community. The work explores ideas of community and marginality and is inspired by Benjamin Britten’s Opera, Peter Grimes which is about a fisherman persecuted by his village. He interviewed five vicars about their experience of watching the opera. Their commentaries provide a unique reflection upon the notion of community and the individual. The red-brick terraced architecture of residential Gateshead also plays a role in illustrating the notion of sameness. It is used as a visual symbol of community in the video, and causes us to question what it means to be different in the face of such uniformity. |
