honeybrothers Associated Project:

We intend to document around the same location as Paul-André Fortier's Solo 30x30, at the same time for a period of 10 days. Like Paul-André's piece, the commuters who use Liverpool Street station repeat the same actions, at the same time, in the same place every day. Changes in their pattern of movement are dictated by outside forces: the intervention of other people; the weather; a train being late meaning the need to rush.

Our project aims to detail the choreography of everyday life. We hope that those who view it will be stimulated to think of movement, not necessarily in abstract terms, but as a vital component of everyday life where we 'dance' without even realising it.

Biography: honeybrothers, formed in 1998, are Daniel and Mark Goddard. Their work to date has been an investigation of contrasting relationships: truth and lies, looking at familiar territory from a different angle, re-evaluating the space and environment around us, making people examine and question their preconceptions. Their digital films have been show in galleries and festivals worldwide, toured with onedotzero and on FilmFour/Channel Four.
