Sam Ely & Lynn Harris

4^th and 5^th June 2005, ICA, from 12.00

Sam Ely and Lynn Harris will respond to our invitation with a

research-based project that will develop from a short residence

at ICA on the 4^th and 5^th June. In order to respond to our

question ‘What should be happening at the ICA?’ they will

observe and question the complex relationship between the

nomadic I.D.E.A.London and the established ICA, documenting

its precarious balance between integration and struggle.

Sam Ely and Lynn Harris are a collaboration that has been

working together since 2002. They are interested in using

research and dialogue as means to recognize and interpret

existing social and political constructs and in making

these structures elusively visible. Their content is ever

expanding as they talk to more people and has dealt with

the potential of the unrealised, self help, gift giving

and intellectual property to name a few. They try to approach

these issues in a critical but non-hierarchical fashion

through active projects including collaborating with others,

printed matter, the web and descriptive souvenirs.
