Belonging to two distinct artist generations and contexts, James Richards and Leslie Thornton developed their first collaborative project Crossing in 2016. This video installation materializes an intense phase of exchange between the artists, both enabled and limited by exchanging footage via online sharing platforms. Thornton, a media artist who herself was influenced by Paul Sharits, Yvonne Rainer, and Joan Jonas often deploys projections complicated by ample sound-image interactions. Likewise, musical composition is key to Richard’s practice. Both artists’ work is motivated by their understanding of cinema and video as original languages and forms of thinking.
