Artist Talk: Catherine Sullivan, Dylan Skybrook, and Sean Griffin

Catherine Sullivan, Triangle of Need, 2007

Catherine Sullivan is best known for her video work that explores multiple themes with historic and cultural references. Her newest project, Triangle of Need, continues this practice in a multichannel, multilayered video installation that combines elements as seemingly disparate as figure-skating, prehistoric communication, and e-mail scams into a work that investigates evolution, wealth, poverty and our global economy. For this talk, Sullivan and her collaborators, Minneapolis-based dancer/choreographer Dylan Skybrook and Los Angeles–based composer Sean Griffin strike up a conversation on their working process and how they turned a multitude of concepts into a successfully integrated piece.

This talk will be webcast live and archived at channel.walkerart.org.
