Indepth Arts News: "WORKOUT: David Nauggle and Rachel Iberra" 2004-01-02 until 2004-02-01 Artspace Richmond, VA, USA United States of America
Exhibiting in the Main Gallery are David Nauggle and Rachel Iberra, both from Atlanta. WORKOUT, a collaborative installation, explores the genre of documentation. Plagued with a sensitive stomach and mysterious food allergies that have affected his artistic productivity, artist David Nauggle decides to take a proactive stance and test the limits of his system. Over a 45-day project, he documents his everyday dietary habits.
Photography and drawings deliver a nauseating account of this experiment. Never having been interested or dedicated enough to stick with an exercise regimen, Rachel Ibarra decides to test her commitment as well as endurance. By attaching two Chinese brushes to a light-tension spring grip which she uses to tone her right forearm (specifically the Extensor Digitorum muscle), she creates a drawing through daily exercise. This 45-day experiment results in one large abstract drawing and two photographs: documentation of the forearm before and after.
