Pogo

-

With an unconstrained virtual camera, Auckland artist Sean Kerr's new work POGO surveys a solo figure like a target in the third dimension, switching rapidly between an odd array of camera angles that fleetingly catch curiously intimate perspectives of polygon mesh: a close view of the back of the neck, a look just behind the ear.

Employing an a-rhythmic animation and infinite repetition of sound and subject, POGO maintains a line somewhere between the playful and the paranoid. A tension exists between its feel for the whimsical and the suggestion of an anxiety bound in the surveillance possibilities of digital space.
