20 April – 28 May 2006
Opening hours: Wednesday – Sunday, 1 – 6pm

Lounge and LUX are pleased to present the debut London solo show of  
Duncan Campbell(18-28 May), the last of three two-week solo shows by  
three emerging video artists.

With a nod to Samuel Beckett, The Unnamable is loosely themed around  
the notion of gaps in language and experience: the primæval stratum  
to everyday existence, the background hum of subjective states which  
never quite break through into the world of speech, commerce and  
common sense. This inchoate stream of velleities and half-fleshed  
fantasies can be unspeakably trivial, or unutterably disturbing. The  
video works presented in The Unnamable each, in their different ways,  
have evoked these subliminal states. Duncan Campbell’s Falls Burns  
Malone Fiddles examines a series of photographs from a Belfast  
community archive, as the narrator questions not only his own  
position as observer but his very existence.
