Amongst Those Left Are You, 2008
variable dimensions
Rebecca Lennon combines text, film, sound, photography, performance and installation in an ongoing process of gathering, collecting, montage and reinterpretation. Relating the seemingly unrelated and drawing from the everyday, illogical, and discarded things that often slip out of the landscape unnoticed, Lennon is interested in communication and by extension miscommunication- what is passed on, shared, exchanged- what is missed, broken down, changed, lost.
Dealing primarily with the search for meaning and synchronicity via (seemingly) illogical or irrational means, Lennon uses readily available everyday materials in creating
montage spaces and ritualistic constructions, drawing upon subjects as diverse as divided support groups for an urban underground tunnel, superstition, myths, cargo cults and sleep-talking. Adopting a creative process as ritualistic as the subjects she draws from, narratives and systems are created and merged; combining the found with the personal, the individual with the social and the real with the invented.
