Rejected or Unused
Clips arranged in order of importance (2003) by Seth Price
is a compilation of forgotten or trashed video clips from the artist's
studio. The random array includes low-res internet videos of boys
fighting, pseudo-scientific diagrams of emotional well-being and
psychedelic visions of utopia.
When tightly edited together, the clips merge into a work that
distills the artist's continuing fascination with the ways violence,
authority and control are insinuated into spiritual and material
realms. Price's investigation reveals how systems of power are played
out and sustained by people in all sorts of mundane and/or extreme
ways.
