Presenting a challenge to Western traditions of private property and surveillance\, the works investigate the implications of the human impulse to survey\, to organize\, and to control in an effort to understand that which is uncomfortably unknown.  \nThe video work at the exhibition’s center\, Self Portrait\, exposes the implications of a traditional god’s-eye-view. While one camera submerges into the murky waters of the East River\, a second flies on a set of balloons above Wall Street\, creating a two-channel video that tracks the artist’s efforts to extend sight. The humble technology of the balloons shifts our experience of the conventional “God’s eye-view” characteristic of military and government-controlled technologies. The unsteady image of the work subverts this customarily controlled top-down perspective\, creating a portrait of precarity in the effort to understand oneself and one’s world from above.  \nArtist Bio\nAnika Todd (b.1992\, Boston\, MA) received her BFA from Massachusetts College of Art and Design\, and her MFA from The University of Texas at Austin. Todd is a sculptor/media artist investigating landscape and ownership; Todd’s work functions through acts of trespass — simultaneously enacting and challenging systems that oppress\, compartmentalize\, and own in order to control. Todd’s work has been presented in solo exhibitions at VisArts Center\, Richmond\, VA and Co-Lab Gallery\, Austin\, TX featured in the Washington Post (2018) and Glasstire (2019) respectively. She has been selected to participate in numerous residencies including Salem Art Works (2017)\, Haystack School of Craft and Design (2018)\, and Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture (2019).

SUMMARY:Din Din: Quick Slice by Lily Baldwin
DESCRIPTION:Nightly Screenings Beginning at DuskLocation: 39-31 29th St\, Long Island CityLily Baldwin’s film installation “Quick Slice” will screen every night in Flux Factory’s front window with free slices every Friday in June (limited pizza! First come\, first serve). \nThis event is part of the exhibition Din Din\, a series of free\, socially-distanced outdoor events which use food and art to build community. \nFilm Description\n“Quick Slice”\, 23 minutes on loop\, 2019 \nTHINGS AREN’T WHERE THEY’RE SUPPOSED TO BE. \nNine lonely strangers converge over a quick slice inside a casual\, no bullshit\, non-committal community hub— the pizza shop. When a “contaigent” enters\, dance turns inconsequential moments into idiosyncratic gestures\, toggling between task and choreography. A subtle\, disorientating use of editing techniques and photographic devices manipulating time craft a visceral and sonically rich dreamscape. \n“Quick Slice” scales to respective environments\, utilizing available architecture and unsuspecting surfaces. Caught between the character’s gaze\, the viewer catches shards of the story projected onto their body. These seemingly accidental screenings encourage an unadulterated and kinesthetic reception of the project. \nInspired by Netta Yerushalmy’s Paramodernities Directed by Lily BaldwinProduced by Brighid GreeneEdited by Lily Baldwin\, Sara SowellVideo installation design consulting by Joseph SeamansSound Mix by Mark degli AntoniCinematography by Ben WolfAssistant Camera Sanjay SinghStills by Courtney DenkHair by Takeo Suzuki|Makeup by Hiro YonemotoMakeup Assistant Ken SuzukiFeaturing designs by PavonProduction Assistants Rishauna Zumberg\, Jaanelle Yee \nStarring Lily Baldwin\, Henry Chesley\, Geneva Frazier\, Dean Melaas\, Toni Melaas\, Katharine Padulo\, Wally Padulo\, Angie Pittman\, Peggy Schneider\, Gus Solomons Jr.\, Amy Meisner Threet \nThanks to New York Live ArtsFiscally sponsored by Los Angeles Performance Project \nArtist Bio\nBased in NYC\, Berlin and LA\, Lily Baldwin is known for her compelling\, intricate narrative forms. Her works have screened at festivals including Sundance\, SXSW\, Berlin\, and Venice\, as well as at Lincoln Center\, the V&A Museum\, and Carnegie Hall to Anthology Film Archives\, Judson Church\, and Blue Stockings Bookstore.
