working with live performance, video, text and objects, GILLIANWYLDE'S practice is an investigation of liveness vs mediation, desire and duration. her work references and unsettles moments appropriated from popular culture, the everyday, and hi-fi/low-fi aesthetics.

it'sarealdeadringerforlove is an on-going work exploring human and animal behaviour, alienation and desire. the work has developed from an encounter with a man barking on a london tube last year.

Gillian created an uncanny world including a video of rippling fur, a mashed potato mountain, model railway set and the sounds of howling wolves which was viewed and heard through peep-holes in the potato-like growth filling the cab.
