Below are images from
Tacturiency (a collaborative project that I am developing with Clare
Thornton) produced in the context of a one-week 'residency' at Summer Lodge,
NTU, 2012, with the excellent support/involvement of intern, Christine Stevens.
Further documentation of Tacturiency at Summer Lodge can be found here.
In Games of Resonance,
Cocker and Thornton appear as operatives engaged in a series of opaque or
ambiguous tasks, whose visual poetics reside somewhere between séance and
shiftwork. The table becomes a conversational space for playing out the
productive frictions and desired points of difficulty within collaboration,
performed through a visual/gestural language that is heightened yet economic,
minimal yet baroque.
