REVIEW EXTRACTS
‘Men In The Wall enormously expands video's horizon. It's as tightly constructed as a classic American sitcom, and funnier than most.’ Toronto Star

‘Aggiss and Cowie delightedly crumble rules and icons in their art.’ Svenska Dagbladet (High Jinx)

‘Motion Control is a stunner.’ The Globe and Mail Toronto

CURRENT PRODUCTIONS
In the Flesh Virtual dance installation where viewers are confronted with what appears to be a life size live dancer in same space as themselves – although it is in fact a projected “spectrefilm”. (4 min loop.)

Men in the Wall Four-screen stereoscopic screen dance. This is a 3D world of four men whose shared, framed lives reveal a public quartet of private differences. (25 min loop.)

Hi Jinx Full length piece that pays homage to the seminal early twentieth century dancer, choreographer and filmmaker Heidi Dzinkowska. (50 mins.)

FUTURE PRODUCTION
Outing Three projection “spectrefilm” where three women appear in the space with the viewer. (20 mins.)
