Welcome to my Homepage presents Systematics of the Staged by Ciara O'Kelly.

Project Description

Systematics of the Staged presents a production cycle manifesting within a curated landscape. It examines the corporation’s effect on evolutionary advances and declines, whilst identifying frameworks used to construct a seamless façade consistently exhibited to the individual.

The pre-determined environment is populated with opaque backdrops, flawless textures, satisfying colour palettes and mathematically perfected lighting in an effort to illustrate a convincing arrangement. Destructive production lines adhering to the projected demands of mass-consumption are masked through the use of carefully calculated simulation, staged moving image and edited sound. The individual is considered a performer within the system; directed, engineered and remodelled to exist in its most universal, efficient and simplified form.

Artist Bio

O'Kelly is an Irish visual artist currently living and working in New York. Her work takes the form of large scale video installations incorporating both digital and physical entities. Throughout her process, she meticulously examines the systematic generation of cyberspace whilst constructing each piece, aiming to critique our relationship to corporate bodies within a largely capitalist and digitized world.
