"Lei Cox: A Solo Show
"
2002-06-01 until 2002-07-13
CCA - Glasgow
Glasgow, ,
UK United Kingdom
This is the first major solo exhibition of the work of LEI
COX to be seen in Scotland. Based in Dundee, Cox
exhibits video and sound installations nationally and
internationally and in this exhibition he will premiere a
new piece, The Choir. Using computer software, Lei Cox
creates and manipulates multiple moving images of
himself which are viewed on multiple screens and
monitors.
Cox is interested in exploring the impact that technology
and science has on society and how its members think and
operate. He is also interested in the possibilities of being
in more than one place at the same time –
a phenomenon that he achieves by manipulating his
digital self.
In Wave, Cox multiplies and synchronises a single
movement to create the effect of a Mexican wave, whilst in
The Conductor, multiple images of the artist clapping
position the viewer as the focus of the applause.
Lei Cox currently lectures in Time Based Art at the Duncan
of Jordanstone College of Art and Design, Dundee.
