Michael Fortune will present a collection of recently produced video works. The showcase will feature eight single-channel works which have been produced in the past three years. Based in County Wexford, Fortune’s work is presented widely nationally and internationally and in the past two years has presented work in over twenty countries in festivals including Edinburgh, Kassel and Image Contre Nature.
Michael’s practice revolves around the collection of material. Without script or storyboard, he generates fascinating material that combines the stand-alone idiosyncrasies of people and incidents in everyday life with complex and visually careful and contemplative treatments that adeptly handle the aesthetics of repetition, humour, obscurity, strangeness and intimacy.
