David Han Exhibits "Margaret Learns to
Drive From There to Here" at Museum of Contemporary Canadian Art
"Margaret
Learns to Drive From There to Here" is a multi-channel video
installation that explores ways in which the suburbs are mediated
through technology. By appropriating and re-performing televisual
representations of suburban family life and cinematically re-presenting
the suburban landscape, this project renegotiates the way in which
suburbia is informed by, and experienced as, representational practice.
'Margaret Learns to Drive From There to Here' was exhibited at the
Museum of Contemporary Canadian Art (http://www.mocca.ca)
as part of Empire of Dreams: Phenomenology of the Built Environment, in
Toronto, Canada from June 19 to August 15, 2010.
To create these fantastic images David Han sprayed
the vehicle's windows and windshield with Screen Goo and used several projectors
around the vehicle.
The video was run from one computer running custom playback software
that allowed him to "shape" each video stream to fit the particular
window.
Below are some photos from the exhibit:
