EVERYTHING FLOWS: THE ART OF GETTING IN THE ZONE

De La Warr Pavilion

1 July to 16 September 2012

To coincide with the London 2012 Olympic Games, Film and Video Umbrella and De La Warr Pavilion present four newly commissioned moving image artworks on the theme of sporting excellence.

Developed out of collaborations with top athletes and scientists, Everything Flows explores the phenomenon of being ‘in the zone’ – the state in which athletes achieve a heightened sense of performance in which body and mind are operating in unison, at maximum impact and with optimum ‘flow’.

The four artist-scientist partnerships were:

Roderick Buchanan and Dr David Shearer

Cornford & Cross and Dr Richard Ramsey

Dryden Goodwin and Elsa Bradley
