About The Artwork
ANIMALITY A small ménagerie of collected objects from the last 5 years. Picking them out of their original habitats; a rocky cala on the Catalonia coast, an after-stormy beach in Greece and narrowly missing stepping on them while out walking, I was immediately and literally gripped by the presence of the objects and their animal quality. It made me think of the game we used to play when I was a child on long journeys with my parents: ‘Animal, vegetable, or mineral?’ Guessing the identity of a chosen virtual ‘thing’ through patient questioning not only helped pass away the motorway miles but brought to light, many a material surprise. What’s animal in a Fiat 124 car seat? When does animal become mineral, when does vegetable transform to animal? What about being all three at once? What stories can we tell? ‘Animality’ therefore continues the game, coming alive, and or, becoming fossilised through the camera eye.

Neil Wood is a British artist, curator and graphic designer. Since the early nineteen eighties he has lived and worked in London, Paris and Brussels. His practise is divers and includes photography, customised print-making, poetry, typography, sculpture, sound installation and more recently, performance. He generates his art through experimentation, writing, selective appropriation and chance actions: he exploits chosen materials and objects and combines them with carefully identified narrative themes and semantic game-playing. His work freely spans the representational to the abstract, often challenging perceptions and arriving at unexpected results through extreme changes of scale or focus. He frequently incorporates language triggers to alter meanings and provokes the irrational and has played recorded voices as audio performances alongside his typographic works. He recently inaugurated a 50 metre mural work entitled 'Et Toi là, Attrape Ton Étoile' for the Paris Metro at the Charles de Gaulle Étoile hub in Paris. www.neilwoodart.com www.vimeo.com/neilwood
