Clone
April 13th, 2010
His video piece he created is about cloning; animals and human beings. Purchased an aquarium that he then gree-screened the background to then make a narrative about fish being cloned and the clones then dying off with the original being copied over-and-over leaidng to clones dying pre-maturely and the original then being devoured.
Critique:
Timothy Druckrey: What does dying fish have to do with cloning?
Lizzy Brooks: Don’t understand how the video relates to the seriousness of cloning, instead its more of a cartoon about the white background.
Timothy Druckrey: Paradise Now – an exhibition sponsored by biotech firm back in 2005 about cloning. Something to consider looking at before continuing to create video pieces about cloning.
