NEW YORK, NY.- Marc Jancou Contemporary presents Meredith James’ first solo show in New York, Espalier. Meredith James’ videos and sculptures engage architectural space and sequential narrative through a series of inversions and perceptual events. Shot in an abandoned subway station, Six uses simple in-camera techniques to recast the spatial and temporal coordinates of the experience of a passing train. Not unlike early experiments in film, James’ work tends to lay bare its mechanism, preferring to acknowledge the perceptual shifts even as they occur. Carefully structured time lags are distributed between moments of recognition within the narrative structure of a video or the spatial arrangement of sculptural elements. James’ use of unconventional viewing apparatuses compounds the experience; videos are rear-projected inside homemade TVs
