Jeremy Evans works mainly in screen based video work. He films images chosen at random as he moves around the world, treating what is filmed as if they were found objects. Always interested in how cameras represent the world and how they change, alter or struggle due to the technologies involved to offer a representations of the world or how it is experienced.

Working with videos as non-narrative, moving images, he presents the viewer with a series of questions about the function and expectations of moving image both as art and the outside world and therefore within the experience of the viewer.

Leaving spaces for self-generation of narrative, he aims to create an awareness of the process of experiencing a work, the way in which we translate as an internal and external process our understanding of our world, temporally and spatially. He often uses infinite loops removing a beginning and an end, leaving the viewer with just a middle section.

The films are usually of ordinary things, filmed with a locked down camera and either with no editing left to operate as a single image, or slightly altered or doubled or tripled in such a way as to generate a disproportionate effect; both systems used as methods of examining the reality of what we see and how we mediate experience.

Recently he has moved into restaging of images either by building sets based on images and filming them or creating three dimensional films by projecting on to cut outs of the images shown. In this way his practice moves out into the space of art and representation and the viewers experiences.

Influenced by Japanese film; minimalism in art and music; Paul Ricoeur’s philosophy of time, narrative and translation; Phenomenology and by the sensations of reading.
