Join us for Splice: Film and Collage, a series of in-gallery performances in response to artworks in the exhibition Mythic Chaos: 50 Years of Destroy All Monsters.
Kris McKinney is a video installation artist using both digital and analogue tools to structure their practice as an experimental filmmaker. Combining their own animated graphics with archived images and pre-recorded events, they create uniquely textured portraits of bodies in motion and shifting virtual landscapes- with an added layer of whimsical audio tunes to further characterize each video/ short film.
The members of the collective Destroy All Monsters have referred to their performances as “Distorted Psychedelic Chaotic High Energy Level Music.” Like their live performances, the collages they co-created were layered critiques of society, using imagery from films, comic books, magazines, and other pop cultural sources. Splice: Film and Collage invites contemporary performance artists working in layered time-based media to produce new work.
