Slowness was an exhibition that presented six young international artists working with video and performance. Often collaborating with musicians, writers and other none art counterparts, the artists converged on Red Wire Gallery, with the joint intention of subverting and reinterpreting our conventional perceptions of time based artworks. I curated this exhibition for Liverpool Independents 2008, the expanded programme of Liverpool Biennial, the UK’s largest festival of Contemporary Art.
