About
My practice transforms the event of writing into performance, video and collage and other things that make it difficult to produce readings. These forms are interconnected and assemble found and constructed images as language experiments using poetic explorations of symmetry, paragrammatic readings and interruption. Underpinned by a state of loss or discomfort my work uses notating, obscuring and repeating, arranging, organising and deconstructing, tasks, images and texts. Considering the action of making as a meeting and arrangement of relationships between bodies, objects and words.
I'm interested in appropriation, the political philosophy of anarchism and autobiographical codes.
Recent projects include: Hunter Gatherer, PSL Project Space Leeds; Proximity Effect, Plymouth Arts Center; Spill Festival, London; ArtEvict, ]Performance S p a c e[ London; Whippit 4, Elevator Gallery London; Red Ape at In The Flesh, Plymouth Arts Center; Live Art Falmouth, Cornwall.
In 2010 I co-founded O U I Performance with artist Victoria Gray and together we programme contemporary time-based performance in York, North Yorkshire.
Nathan currently teaches in the Faculty of Arts at York St John University, York.
