*periphery
Edited by Aaron Juneau, Jonathan Watts and Harriet Mitchell.
YH485 Press, September 2009.
Limited to 1,000 copies with fifty reserved to hold fish and chips in the borough of Great Yarmouth.
This is the first major collaborative publication by YH485 Press which has been working with the London-based curatorial initiative Gymnasium to realise *periphery.
The collaboration resulted from a project gymnasium initiated for the annual Out There Festival in the seaside town of Great Yarmouth for which three local artists were commissioned to produce moving-image works responding to their locale.
The resulting vide0s were shown on a large screen situated along the ‘Golden Mile’ on Great Yarmouth’s seafront. Rather than produce a catalogue relating to these works, Gymnasium envisioned a newspaper that would bring together voices from diverse disciplines on one common theme – ‘periphery’
Each artist was invited to include an image and text relating to their view of ‘periphery’.
The limited edition was available from the YH485 Press website (now closed) or possibly as wrapping for fish and chips during September 2009.
Pepper’s written contribution to the publication reflects the gestural, drawn marks found in his earlier works on paper.
