Amanda Beech : Covenant Transport Move or Die

21 Oct 2016-29 Jan 2017

Overview

Northern Gallery for Contemporary Art and BALTIC are pleased to present the UK premiere of Amanda Beech's Covenant Transport Move or Die, 2016. This five channel video installation delivers a heady mix of analogue-style pop and video game aesthetics, featuring five characters who form a workerist crew comprising manager, worker, programmer, consumer, and dealer. Covenant Transport Move or Die conjures an opposing landscape that is at once mobile and heavy, quick and brutal. The exhibition also includes a number of new copper plates. The exhibition has been initiated and developed by Northern Gallery for Contemporary Art, Sunderland, and is being shown at BALTIC as part of a joint project between both venues.
