Dedicated to the love of city wandering and fantastical discoveries,
East of Keele brings to the street the video animation Sightings by Stacia Verigin.
Sightings (video animation, 2005-2007) exists primarily as
a kind of lost work, in that it exists to be found by chance more than
anything else. Composed entirely of my own arms shadowy movements, the
separate motions are then edited into imaginary, puppet-like creatures,
that appear briefly, in the form of a video projection. Now seemingly
unattached from the rest of me, they are free to swim, fly, or run and
be witnessed by those who happen to be there, in the right place at the
right time.
