John Wood and Paul Harrison, a British collaborative duo, make single-channel videos, multi-part video installations, sculptural objects, and works on paper that elegantly fuse advanced aesthetic research with existential comedy. The artists' pointed works feature the actions of their own bodies in combination with a wide range of static and moving props. In their sometimes-unsuccessful experiments with movement and materials, Wood and Harrison engage exuberant invention, subtle slapstick, and a touch of lighthearted melancholy to reveal the inspiration and perspiration–as well as the occasional hint of desperation–behind all creative acts.
