Abstract

Remote Sensing is an art Installation. It was installed at the Moot Hall in Hexham.
This was a solo exhibition and was part of the Short|Sharp event organised by the Neon Arts organisation.

The work consisted of a projector, audio equipment, and a box designed by the artist, which was constructed from a series of intersecting one-way and two-way mirrors and transparent perspex sections. The film Life/Forms, (Goodfellow, 2014), was projected into the box to create a new fractured and mirrored image, with the appearance of infinite depth and repetition.

Goodfellow also gave an artist talk on 2 November, at the Forum Cinema, Hexham, in which he discussed his work, and how it could be divided into the consideration of things that can be 'known' from solid first-hand experience, and things that could only be perceived remotely through sensation. He described these two categories of enquiry as 'Ground-Truthing' and 'Remote Sensing', respectively; categories of data-capture and surveying traditionally associated with environmental science and geography.
