Monadic Device at Sydney Contemporary 2018: Simon Ingram
Past exhibition
Overview
Simon Ingram in collaboration with John-Paul Pochin will present an endurance-based artwork of sorts, Monadic Device, a five-day painting event in which Ingram’s mental activity is recorded as a response to his own drawing and to the environment of Sydney Contemporary. Picked up by an EEG headset and interpreted by custom software, this data is then materialised as a series of paintings by a machine developed by the artist. In undertaking this project the artist brings together elements of his recent work at Germany’s ZKM Centre for Art and Media where invisible cosmic energy was made visible as painting with a new, rekindled interest in subjectivity, people, and politics.
