John Wood and Paul Harrison
Wood and Harrison have been working together in the field of video art since 1993, creating actions in which the human body and everyday objects are used as instruments to explore space and to experiment with the laws of action and reaction. Their language is characterized by an approach which is both conceptual and ironic at the same time.
