MAGIC

Single screen back projection on caravan window, 25 mins

 Hypnodreamdruff, 1996

 

Dave is a thirty-something manager of 'The Dry Cleaners Shop'.
He is a lively, talkative guy with acute dandruff. Dave has an

obsessive personality and is an avid collector and hobbyist.

His hobbies include magic and steam ironing, and his primary

obsession is Lionel Ritchie. Dave lives alone in a caravan and

fights loneliness by turning every domestic situation into a

theatrical event.

 

Magic was exhibited with Hypnodreamdruff at Tate Gallery, London in 1996,

at Barbara Gladstone Gallery, New York in 1996 and at Kunstmuseum Wolfsburg

in Germany in 1997.
