"Inherent in pause/play is tension; it implies a dialogue between passive and active, stop and start, reflection and performance.

As both Mark Twain and the pianist Artur Schnabel noted, the pause can be the moment of greatest intensity where the art resides; it is when decisions are made about the next play – be that a strategic or intuitive approach to making.

The degree show can be viewed as a monumental pause, a deep intake and holding of breath, prior to whatever lies ahead, or the final play in what has been for these artists four years of intensive work encompassing a range of practice-based experiments and assignments, historical and theoretical studies and various types of professional practice experience."

Dr Venda Pollock

She is co-director of Intersections, a project linking Fine Art with the wider cultural sector in the field of public art.

Venda Louise is currently the Head of Art History within Fine Art.
