For sun
I am an oval thing

I try to write
and talk about the coats&scarfs
like the cosy cost of living
in the friendly handshakes
I can feel the winter cold approaching

and all the more expensive reasons
for living.

/// Biography

William and Lewis Esdale were born in Belfast, Northern Ireland. They now live, work and study between Belfast and London. William and Lewis are studying and practicing Artists at Kingston University, London and Westminster University, London.

William and Lewis started their artistic education at Castlereagh College, Belfast under the guidance of Ray Duncan and Sam Fleming. They both successfully passed their BTEC Undergraduate year with Distinctions for their works titled “Robin.” (William Esdale) Mixed Media Painting, Graphic Design, Photography / “My Mother a Portrait” (Lewis Esdale) Video Installation and Photography. These works gained them both places at Kingston University and Westminster University, London. It is here they are now living and studying for their BA Fine Art with Hons.

William and Lewis are both video and mixed media artists, specialising in lens-based media, moving image installation, film and video art. Their work will be exhibited for the first time publicly over the summer 2008 in Belfast, London and further a-field in Europe and the United States. At the moment they are concentrating on their studies.

They have both relentlessly kept their work private and out of public observation. It is only now they are enthusiastic about launching there new and old work within the mainstream and art community worldwide so to build the foundations that will lead to successful joint and solo projects within all the varying artistic communities.

/// Statement

We have always applied people and psychology to our works. The psychology of relationships and how people view one another has always been an integral part of our work and studies. The audience has to interact with the works on a personal level as it is important to view the work in a non conceptual and conceptual abstract form. Our concepts in our art practice are always changing. We believe one cannot form one style or use one medium in today’s growing art community. One has to be able to use all available mediums and materials. We are at this time living in the midst�s of an Art Revolution as the idea of art has never been so free to express. Artists today have to be able to adapt and change to this unstable and continually changing technical environment.

We use our own bodies in our work as documentary, it is important to our concepts and approaches. We will also use psychology and emotion to give visual drama and narrative. It is through fear of the unknown we are always teaching ourselves new and valid behaviours in the work and this helps us learn, retain and move our logic within our practice forward. Capturing these ideals in any medium is unique and well within the reaches of Contemporary Art.

Photography is always a constant in our final work. It helps us regarding our research and can be used as an extremely effective tool to record insights into the human condition. Photography structures memories which we can always go back too, photography inspires us to create and think.

In Video we can both explore the living sculpture be this body and form or an inanimate structure to create emotion, even ask explorative psychological questions into the abstract. Video allows us to document a more raw and emotional sense of moments we would lose in photography. It allows us to deconstruct the normal and turn it into abnormal, abstract, illusive forms of culture and social documentation.

/// Our Inspirations

We all have people we look up to in the art world. Here we want to share with you some of the people who have inspirited us and made it all possible to not only learn but to think.

Richard Billingham, Ray Duncan, Sam Fleming, Yoko Ono, Klaus Von Burch, Cindy Sherman, Chris Cunningham, Douglas Gordon, Gary Hill, Paul McCarthy, Bill Viola, Bruce Nauman, Steve McQueen, Nam June Paik, Volker Eichelmann, Pipilotti Rist… and many more.

These people not only inspire us to work, they teach us.
