Click to enlargeAMANDA BEECH : SANITY ASSASSIN
Jan 31 - Apr 11, 2010
Sanity Assassin is a three-channel video installation with a sculptural element; a spotlit mirrored plinth, which displays a series of polished chainsaws. Situated in a custom designed waiting area, this glamorous structure with subliminal horror movie overtones is homage to the corporate lobby of a real Los Angeles showroom. Beyond this is a three screen video installation which embodies another violence.
