Artist Simon Pope’s work, such as the film Memory Marathon (2010), often involves walking and talking with others. More recent work, such as A Song, A Dance And A New Stannary Parliament (2014) continues an ongoing interest in how objects appear within dialogue. These concepts form the basis of Pope’s doctoral study at the Ruskin School of Art, University of Oxford, establishing more-than-human through dialogic art practice. Formerly a member of
the Net.Art artists’ group I/O/D, he is also the author of London Walking (2000). Pope represented Wales at the Venice Biennale in 2003.
