Yes, It Is A Universal Truth That We Are In Fact In Complete Control Of Ourselves
Silver Mawson
2008, Silent DVD, Edition of 20, Duration: 3 minutes, 17 seconds
‘Yes, It Is A Universal Truth That We Are In Fact In Complete Control Of Ourselves’ stems from the working relationship Silver & Mawson have developed and forms part of a continuing dialogue between them. The recording of an unheard scripted conversation, the work speaks of and about itself.
Their decision not to publish the piece on the internet or disseminate it in any other form after Elections reflects their intention of intimacy: an experimental and personal exploration of dialogue around contemporary practice made exclusively for fellow Leeds based artists.
For Eclections Silver & Mawson will produce a limited edition of 20 copies of the DVD.
