Excerpts from The Unstable Subject, 1992
The Unstable Subject, a video and mixed media installation, was constructed to pose questions about the ways in which social groupings interact, and subsequently, how these interactions are continuously determined by a fluctuating process of acting and being acted upon by history, culture, and language. The questions in the work emerge through deliberate slippages in the relationships between image/sound/text and indicate disjunctures between the varied representations we produce in records of ourselves and others.
The audio and texts for The Unstable Subject are based on the texts for Family Pictures (1985).
