Linger (Bank Ramp)

​​

Linger (bank ramp) is a 1-hour 5-minute looped single-channel video documenting a durational fall performed by the artist at Greensborough Skate Park. This video captures a slow, deliberate collapse, amidst skateboarders and BMX riders. The diegetic audio features recorded sounds from the environment, including skateboard wheels hitting cement, bike brakes and passing cars.  â€‹

​​

Performing durational falls down quarter-pipes and grind rails at skate parks, Linger interrogates how bodies occupy and negotiate space. Extending the duration of a fall, the body attempts to move out of sync with the slope’s velocity. A slow, soft body in a hard, fast space. â€‹â€‹â€‹
