Pierre St-Jacques “The Exploration of Dead Ends”
Station Independent Projects
This event has ended.
“The Exploration of Dead Ends” is a multi-channel video installation that explores the nebulosity that is found in human experience. A man can just sit there, sit there and do nothing, and an epic narrative will ensue. Imperceptible tectonic shifts beneath his feet, just under his knowing, will take him on a journey. That vision of an ongoing search within the depths of experience, with its little doors and its vast murky expanses, has become the current dialog within St-Jacques work.
“The Exploration of Dead Ends” was conceived as a journey where the events that are clearly happening are just as important as the awkward emotions on the perifery, where the direction seems defined yet the place of arrival isn’t. It’s realism in a similar way that “Finnegan’s Wake” is realism, or how synthetic cubism is about realism. Above all it’s an investigation into what goes on inside us all and how that little human motor works.
