My Name is Roni Rea Dean, and I am a Fine art student at UCS, currently in the second year of my degree. Alongside my passion for art I also have a passion for boxing, Competing as a female amateur boxer, and coaching for Attleborough Boxing Club. Having two great passions has led me to combine the two, putting my boxing into my art. 'We are all in the gutter but some of us are looking at the stars.' -Oscar Wilde

Two screen displayed on monitors
This is an image of Bruce Nauman's piece titled 'Good Boy Bad Boy'.
This piece consisted of two videos with a different actor in each who read the same lines as each other which are very repetitive, slowly they become out of sync as they both talk at different paces and progressively get more of an angry tone as they go through the speech. When they become out of sync the audio and the images on screen clash with one another, creating a very confusing contrast, and almost makes you feel anxious when watching it. What interests me about this piece is that is isn't projected, it is displayed on two monitors which gives it a more separated feel, whereas two screen almost merges into each other and feels like one. The fact that they are on monitors works well with this work, this is because they are very different and they are clashing, its like putting two different channels on two TV's and putting them in the same room, they clash and become confusing.
