The exhibition features a chorus of melodic TV talking heads singing a version Cloud Busting, a Kate Bush track based on the bizarre cloud bursting machine of psychologist, Wihelm Reich, to an enormous anthropomorphic lump of clay defiantly rejecting its relationship with technology. Drew’s unlikely material combinations are fused with the electrical pulse of computer technology to catalyse and transform the obsolete nature of analog media’.

Both these installations are indeed ‘immersive and visceral’ Baga’s is much more random, intuitive and spontaneous and Drew’s could be considered as far more orchastrated and slick ( perhaps to an extent the ‘hers’ and ‘his’ of moving image installation).
