3 Cents an Inch video

In the mid 90's artist Eugene Clark lived and worked in New York City, producing performance art on the street and in theaters as a member of the Artists on Pavement duo. This performance of "3 cents an inch" was taped at the Greenwich Village Theater Center as part of the Downtown Arts Festival. 3 cents an inch is a tabletop bunraku style puppet piece about a glow worm in search of his missing heart and meets characters including Bubble nose, Exercise dude, Fruit striped gum zebra, Green dog, and Pee dog.

 

Strata video

In the early 90's artist Eugene Clark acquired a PXL2000, PixelVision video camera, marketed by Fisher Price, recording black and white images on audio cassette. The square shaped pixels along with the semi-fuzzy quality, create a unique and daunting view of the artist's studio, used metal car parts, and found objects, as part of Clark's "strata" series. The soundtrack is primarily the sustained buzz of the video device along with ambient clanging and crashing of the objects. Clark created this footage while attending graduate school at Cranbrook Academy of Art, Bloomfield Hills, MI, and Wayne State University, Detroit, MI.
