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.  

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. ​​
