Blaffer Art Museum will present a conversation between British artist Hilary Lloyd, whose solo exhibition is on view through September 10 at Blaffer Art Museum; exhibition curator Javier Sánchez Martínez; and New York-based curator Scott C. Weaver, former assistant curator at the renowned Museum für Gegenwartskunst in Basel, Switzerland.

Featuring video sculptures, projections and installations, Lloyd is the first U.S. museum presentation of the 2011 Turner Prize finalist’s work. Lloyd’s video installations present sequences of raw and found footage ranging from staggered narrative fragments to long takes of abstract retinal sensations that expose the materiality of visual technologies. Treating A/V equipment as a sculptural medium, Lloyd’s monitors, projectors, stands and cabling entail a bodily experience that engages hearing and wandering as much as viewing.
