Stephen Palmer: The Anxiety of the Relation         PhD Exhibition, Visual Art

This project utilises video, text and photography to explore the function of the image as a prosthetic means of perception. The works come out of an investigation of what Samuel Beckett calls ‘the anxiety of the relation’, an uncertainty inherent in perception, which he argues can be exposed by the artwork in its turning away from the telos of representation.

The research has developed a close reading of the prosthetic logic in Beckett’s texts, and the resulting body of work draws on particular motifs found there, such as the modulation of bodies, inhibition of vision, and the contingency of experience.

These ideas are developed in the context of the saturation of everyday life by contemporary teletechnologies, and the temporal and spatial disorientation which they engender.
