Dancing figures, time it begs, Moving works with fleeting legs

marytwo proudly presents Dancing figures, time it begs, Moving works with fleeting legs featuring video works by Samantha Aquilino, Cheryl Donegan, Martine Gutierrez, Hamish Halley, K8 Hardy, NIC Kay, Mark Leckey, Joe Moss. To watch moving images is to engage in a durational encounter – one that demands time, attention, and a willingness to surrender to sequential unfolding. This exhibition presents video works by eight artists, projected in a carefully composed 50-minute sequence, each work follows the next in continuous flow. In contrast to the fragmented, on-demand nature of digital media consumption, this setting – large-scale projection, seating arranged for extended viewing – foregrounds the act of sustained spectatorship.
