With the first "verse" now finished and the rest at about 50%, I think I can actually see this personal project being completed! I'm pretty excited with the "pair up" of this with the photographic series (same name and theme, but on canvas :) With that, I will be resuming my "kraft dinner" budget and trying to spend my fabrication of time a bit more wisely.. Baby steps! :)

On an enthusiastic note, if you are an artist with similar influences/interests thinking about quirky projects (2009-2010) to collaborate on please drop me a line.. Likewise, if you ever find yourself "across the pond" in the new year I would be more than happy to introduce you to one or two galleries and personalities that you might get along with!

Cheers!

Shot in four countries, between 2005 and 2008, tenement+iv is the fourth experimental urban documentary by visual artist Leigh Anthony DEHANEY. As with his gallery work, he continues to conceptually explore themes of retro-futurism, apocalyptic titanism, communication and the nihilistic.

Many of the psycho acoustic soundscapes were initially constructed by Dehaney during 2003-2006 while attending the Alberta College of Art + Design in Canada.

Artist Profile:
Canadian artist Leigh Anthony Dehaney’s background is a mixture of fine arts and technology. After graduating from Mount Royal College with an Arts and Science Diploma Dehaney obtained his Bachelor of Science in Computer Science from the University of Calgary. In 2003 he was accepted into the Alberta College of Art + Design where he was drawn towards Media Arts & Digital Technologies. Best known for his visual work, Dehaney’s influences often include constructivist architecture, industrial ruins, painted dumpsters, vintage technology, and mechanical systems. Dehaney’s personal practice/gallery work often depicts portraiture within a derelict and contaminated world, much of which has been largely influenced by unmarked visits to industrial Cuba and Eastern Germany. His visual artwork and experimental videos have been exhibited and featured both locally and internationally, most notably with CBC's Arts Review (Canada), Gabrichidze Gallery (Brussels), Shufflesome (Germany), Jones Soda Co. (USA), and Fotofest (USA). Professionally Dehaney consults as a “graphics dude” through his company Dravenfield Ltd. founded in 2004. Currently he spends his free time documenting industrial/urban environments in Eastern Europe and is working on his next experimental short flick “tenement+iv, 1984+½”, which he hopes to have completed by May 2009.
