Description
This piece begins with the premise that Beauregard and Hulcher made robotic replicas of themselves so that their robotic replicas would exist in their place upon the completion of a dual/pact suicide. The video provides further information related to this premise.
Through oblique nods to genre film tropes, cult audiences and political unrest, Chris Beauregard creates objects that join our desire for collective narratives with a participatory fandom at the edges of cinema. He holds a BFA in Sculpture from Virginia Commonwealth University, and an MFA from Carnegie Mellon University.
Jesse Hulcher (American, b. 1980) received his MFA from Carnegie Mellon University in 2006, after receiving his BFA from the Atlanta College of Art in 2003. His work has been shown in numerous solo and group exhibitions/screenings throughout the US, Europe, and Asia.
