“Notes I, II and III are comprised of seven short films. Presented in full for the first time in London, Charlie Tweed's sci-fi propaganda style is the result of taking found films and re-working them entirely to explore notions of fear and anxiety underpinned by a need for mass control.”
Natalie Liechti, Flavorpill
This exhibition will be Charlie Tweed's first solo exhibition in London and also the London premier of the entire Notes I, II & III video series which will be presented as a single screen projection. The exhibition will also mark the launch of the Spike Island publication Notes From Here edited by curator Marie-Anne McQuay which expands upon the Notes series. The seven short videos which make up Notes interrogate complex systems of control that utilise the language of fear in an attempt to logisticise and manage all forms of life. The 'voice' of the videos appears to come from an ever present but anonymous collective who are orchestrating change on a mass scale; their use of the plural is deliberate, implying that 'we' must have the same desires as them.
