UBS 12x12: Carrie Schneider

Quietly mysterious figures perform a captivating slow dance inside a darkened bar in artist Carrie Schneider's first major video project. Slow Dance presents an unexpected look at the intimate and often non-verbal form of communication between two people in a public setting and what each brings to the encounter.

Slow Dance imagines the psychological and physical representations of romantic relationships. Schneider cites influences such as David Lynch and Finnish filmmaker Eija-Liisa Ahtila along with Brassai's 1930s photographs of Parisian nightlife.
