ELLIE HARRISON 9th Nov
Ellie Harrison’s practice can be seen as emerging from her ongoing attempt to strike-a-balance between the competing roles of ‘artist’, ‘activist’ and ‘administrator’.
Her work takes a variety of forms including performance spectacles, interactive installations, collaborative projects, political campaigns, media interventions, lectures, websites and coach trips.
She uses skills and strategies drawn from each of these perspectives to create playful and engaging work, in-and-out of art world contexts, which aims to expose and challenge the systems which control and rule over our lives, be they political, ethical, social or economic.
The image is from Fireworks Display 26 June 2010 - 'a one-woman attempt to re-enact a chronology of ‘the history of revolution’ over the course of the last 360 years via the medium of pyrotechnics.'
