Demonstrations and Details from The Facts of Life
Lyndal Jones

An Exhibition at Newlyn Art Gallery, Penzance, Cornwall.
18 February - 17 March 2001.
Commissioned and produced by DA2 and Artec

 
 

'Demonstrations and Details of the Facts of Life' responds to it's viewers. Layers of material reveal themselves, but not in a way that can be controlled by the audience. Instead it appears as if a dialogue between the viewer and the work is created, each one flirting with the other.

Lyndal Jones' work explores desire and attraction through highly personal reminiscences, which take us from Charles Darwin's theories about sexual attraction to people's experience of eroticism. Lyndal Jones has created a work that blends the interactive possibilities of new technology with the sophistication of a complex video installation. She has also recently been selected to represent Australia at the Venice Biennale.

Developed over a three-year period by DA2 and Artec, this is a unique project that challenges the experience a viewer can have in a gallery.
