I&#8217;ve followed up on the artists he mentioned and I find little common ground other than technology. They&#8217;re all interesting artists in different ways and I&#8217;ve always found it much easier to be interested in artists who I don&#8217;t feel as if I&#8217;m competing with. I&#8217;ll think about explaining that sentence more when I&#8217;ve finished this project. The closest work I&#8217;ve seen to mine is Jakob Kudsk Steensen, there is an interview with him on the Louisiana Channel here, <\/span><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/channel.louisiana.dk\/video\/jakob-kudsk-steensen-our-middle-existence\">https:\/\/channel.louisiana.dk\/video\/jakob-kudsk-steensen-%ef%bb%bfour-middle-existence<\/a> <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif;\">and he has this work <a href=\"https:\/\/catharsis.live\/\">https:\/\/catharsis.live\/<\/a> on at the Serpentine. It represents an ancient forest, created from studies of several real life locations in America, and he models in great detail. In the end though he&#8217;s made a film. What I&#8217;m really thinking about now is agency within the artwork and whether that is important or not?<\/span><\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 584px;\" class=\"wp-video\"><video class=\"wp-video-shortcode\" id=\"video-1973-1\" width=\"584\" height=\"329\" preload=\"metadata\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"video\/mp4\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ian-latham.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/animated-birds.mp4?_=1\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ian-latham.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/animated-birds.mp4\">https:\/\/www.ian-latham.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/animated-birds.mp4<\/a><\/video><\/div>\n<p class=\"western\"><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif;\">This video is from the executable file.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week the project hit a bit of a standstill as all I need to do is round things off for the project.
