SUMMARY:Bunker Talk #164: Benedict L Phillips
DESCRIPTION:Please register on Eventbrite if you wish to attend. \n\n\n\nA video recording of this talk will be available from 5 June. \n\n\n\nAn A-Z of neurodivergent ideas \n\n\n\nBenedict Phillips is an established artist\, curator\, and consultant. His practice is eclectic\, encompassing a broad range of methodologies\, generating work as diverse as public art\, performance\, sculpture\, photography\, and media art. He is particularly concerned with the ongoing interrelationship and shifting hierarchy between photography\, sculpture and performance within his practice\, and the aesthetics of each approach. Exploiting historical production processes as well as more recent digitally driven approaches informs the making of much of his work. \n\n\n\nBenedict has been making neuro-affirmative art projects for 35 years and recently celebrated the 30th anniversary of his manifesto and artwork The Agenda of the Agresiv Dislecksick\, published in Disability Arts in London (DAIL)\, 1995. \n\n\n\nBenedict is currently developing a project that encompasses and reflects on the past\, present\, and possible futures of neurodivergent creative practice. He has recently rescued the Art Dyslexic Trust Archive\, which encompasses the period 1992 to 2012\, from destruction. \n\n\n\nBenedict is Director and founding member of several arts groups and organisations\, including: Field Study (est. 1993\, book art and mail group); Digital Media Labs (est. 2010\, professional development residencies for artists); Lens Lab Project (est. 2020\, a not-for-profit socially engaged photographic community-focused organisation). Benedict has been a regular guest lecturer at universities in the UK and the USA over the past 25 years\, delivering professional development and artist talks\, and he is a member of the expert panel at Manchester School of Architecture.
