"PIDGIN interrupted transmission - Erika Tan" |
|
|
|
PORTSMOUTH, UK.- The Aspex Gallery presents "PIDGIN interrupted transmission - Erika Tan", on view through April 20, 2002. The dictionary definition of 'pidgin', is a Chinese corruption of the English term 'business', used to describe a colloquial language made up of elements of two or more other languages. This multimedia installation by Erika Tan combines sound, texts, images and icons from a number of places around the world. PIDGIN offsets the apparently homogenising tendencies of an increasingly globalised economy with a vision of cultural interaction, forged out of difference and local inflection. PIDGIN becomes a metaphor for exploring the slippage, invention, creative adaption, flexibility and fluidity of communication exchanges, technological development and the artist's creative process. PIDGIN is a Film and Video Umbrella Touring Exhibition in association with Norwich Gallery. Supported by National Touring Programme of The Arts Council of England.
