Waugh Office was established in 2011 by Julia and Mark Waugh.
A hybrid platform. working with curators, writers, theorists and artists to smudge
cultural differences and attitudes across physical and national borders.
. Pushing the programme, exploring the traffic in ideas that are nomadic,
with a focus on perceptions rather than stereotypes and assumptions.
We come to play, escape prejudice and shout for renegade
values of the unfixable, broken and unhomely.

Artist's Films The Salon
The Lewisham Arthouse
2017
This screening of artist's films was curated by Julia Waugh for The Lewisham Arthouse in London, an exploration of Low Definition aesthetics this event was thematically an exploration in the truth of portraiture. The artworks all explored questions of sensibility, from Anti-cool's memetic gestures of Lone Orchestra, to the inhibition of a bedroom in Samantha Sweeting's I Sleep For You.
Anti-cool
Low Definition, like an act of translation, is more the suggestion of something, in descriptions that are formless there is the concept of “L’informe”. Yet the question of the Premium and highly defined communication is a blurred equation, with our increased abilities to clone reality, meta data is minimised in a horizontal platform of replication.
Still associated with DIY production and the economically marginalised, the accessibility of technologies has enabled a reevaluation of "HD" as opposed to "LD". Perhaps as exchange that allows for another experience and with this permission for the "in-between" of things to have significance.
