Uličnická Galerie” (2025), the video portion, was made from a small part of frontage of an artist-nominated street gallery across from the National Gallery of Prague. The sound track is from an improvisation at Gasworks Studio using a plastic bin from the studio refrigerator (see Flat Works, 2024). These two were edited independently, many months apart, to create "standalone" works later "knitted" together. (Read "RKM Interviews Dan Senn" for philosophy and process.) The film site is one of a few remaining undeveloped buildings in Prague today, a city and country that offered numerous alternative venues and opportunities to artists post 1989. The site was also selected for the anonymous walk-bys, these incorporated into the structure of the work. I consider this "gallery" a found object.	There is no intended symboliism in this work even while it invokes unique feelings and interpretations. With some exceptions, it has not interested me to use art to communicate a personal agenda beyond that realized by surface structure where I focus my creative energy. In recent works I have improvising in time-based mediums, like video (rhythmic mappings) and sound, to create standalone artifacts using found (unrehearsed objects) without thought of future media combinations. Each level of improv in whatever medium must stand alone, it's spontaneous characteristics virtually intact. When combined with other standalone works, the challenge is to create an artifact mutually beneficial without the loss of the spontaneity—a metaphor, perhaps, for a healthy society. DS 090725.
