Lately We Have Been Here Just About All The Time Even When We Are Someplace Else We Should Be Here Too

Abstract

As a way of approaching the work which was exhibited at the Henry Art Gallery as part of the 2019 University of Washington MFA + MDes Thesis Exhibition, this text outlines a film, and within that film a discussion of the use of strobe lights within the varied venues of theatre, club, and art gallery. Through the strobe light I return to the film and bring the text back around to the exhibition. The aim of this text is not to clearly outline or fortify the exhibition, but rather to optimize the space allotted by the thesis paper for the introduction of a third work to be considered in relation to the two that shown at the Henry Art Gallery.
