InBetweenTheories is pleased to welcome artist Phyllis Baldino for a unique opportunity to look at at the genesis of a new piece of her work and engage in a wide ranging conversation about her creative practice and process.  We also take a deep dive into conversation about her recent nine-channel wireless synced installation, Nothing From the Future and a single-channel piece Now Is Here, exhibited this year at  the Videoformes Festival of Digital Arts in Clermont-Ferrand, France.  The “underwater” piece, which is still in progress on a larger scale, is the most recent project to appear on InBetweenTheories.
 
Discussing her work Baldino says, “That's why now making this piece, this underwater piece, I'm in a different kind of struggle. I can't make it as blatant …  I have to infiltrate political stuff in here but I don't want it to be literal because that's not the way my brain works. So somehow, it's gonna be political, funny, and other things that I don't even know yet … When I am shooting and I am using my body, my body is just a tool , it could be anything else, it just happens to be a body. We all have bodies, we know how our bodies work. “

UNDERWATER  will go live on inbetweentheories.com on September 1, 2018  
There is a podcast discussion with the artist discussing the work also available on the site.
