And, paradoxically, it is the real that has become our true utopia - but a utopia that is no longer in the realm of the possible, that can only be dreamt of as one would dream of a lost object." Baudrillard, J, Simulacra and Simulations United States of America: University of Michigan Press 1994 This work reconstructs and continues a comic book narrative based upon the comic style imagery from A-ha’s 1986 music video Take On Me. The fictional realm of the comic world and the real world become conflated with a series of coincidences within the artist’s own contemporary life; these re-animations changing the temporal dynamic of what is perceived by many as part of an iconic 1980s music video. Recent images of the band have been redrawn in the same style of drawing as Michael Patterson’s comic book world, in order to re-appropriate the imagery associated with Take On Me, as part of a comic book installation that includes the series of coincidences that make an A-ha fan’s world part of a virtual and real collaboration with the band themselves; a relationship that transcends the boundaries of celebrity idolatory and converging the realm of the imaginary with the real. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- New Designers, 9th - 13th July 2008, Business Design Centre Islington, London.
