Film and video technology have been used above all to promote 
conventional fantasies of sexual, economic and social achievement. 
Through a set of overlapping video projections at the Richmond Art 
Gallery, Susan Stewart and Dorothy Seaton will search to propose new 
modes of thought and to project alternative futures – alternative 
fantasies - in response to current social and environmental crisis. 
Given our participation in multiple biosystems and levels of 
interdependence, the artists’ working assumption for "Change Without 
Notice" is that to radically shift the terms of sets of relations – 
here, the ecology of gender in particular – is to evoke change on many 
other levels of social and environmental interconnectedness. The 
layering and interaction of multiple projections will transform the 
Gallery into a kind of lever for change – a place where new fantasies, 
difficult and joyous alike, challenge current modes of relation.
