Fact. Fiction. The internet. Rasputin. Museums. Film.
‘The Disclaimer’ is a specially commissioned video work drawing on Shae and Jess’s on shared interests in narrative film and documentary. The artists explore how language and directives shape perceptions of truth in a playful look at the faith we put in cinema and it’s storytelling abilities.
The majority of films are concluded with variations of the following phrase – All characters and events depicted in this film are entirely fictitious. Any resemblance to actual events or locales or persons, living or dead, is entirely coincidental. The original disclaimer text was developed in response to controversy surrounding the truth of storytelling in the 1930’s biopic, Rasputin and the Empress.
Shae and Jess’s work, ‘The Disclaimer’ incorporates original and recreated disclaimer texts from films spanning almost 80 years. From the ornate calligraphy on rich backgrounds of the 40’s to the minimal white fonts on plain black of current films. Furthering the merging of fact and fiction, footage from natural history museum displays are cut throughout as filmic backdrops. The video is screened within a theatrical recreation of a puppet stage made from paper.
